Most times when I get something like that it has to do with the /dev/'s not being present. Could be that udev isn't running on your box. Or isn't configured for alsa. It could also be something else like snd-pcm-oss not auto loading. And it's friends, snd-mixer-oss snd-seq-oss. Basically

Did you issue alsamixer as the command or the full pathname? If the former, maybe something is wrong with your path/environment setup. I used it as both. Nothing works :/ I am wondering if your OS install hasn't actually loaded the modules correctly for your hardware. Everything worked

I also use ubuntu (10.04) and it came to happen that the system didn't load the modules automatically any more. I don't know why that happened or where this loading is prohibited. Just try to load the module manually and see if that works. If so, you could also post this on a ubuntu mailing

Note that * is a wildcard. So /dev/dsp* is any devices that start with /dev/dsp. It looks like you don't have the modules loaded. # modprobe snd-hda-intel $ sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel (depending on your distro / $ is user / # is root) It might be /etc/init.d/alsasound or other named thing

Try running only amidi --dump -p virtual, and then connecting the hardware sequencer port to the virtual on It works fine when amidi connects to it. Shows 3 bytes for each key on/key off. When the sequencer converts the messages back to raw MIDI bytes, it uses running status by default.
