@henning that sounds great! In which version did you see this? I expect
the build would also need the libasound2-dev dependency, which should be
in the control file.
I remember that indeed an alsa sequencer device was created on
connection; I only tested (when submitting this bug) midi
as far as I can see in the bluez package source, the midi option is
enabled now, so it *could* be closed...
But even though it's on, I dont get it working, so I cannot confirm for
sure.
Expectation is: when connecting to a device, I get an alsa sequencer
client, but I dont see that happening.
I have that problem on an Ubuntu 19.10 box. I tried to connect an ESP32
using BLE to act as a MIDI device. The device is detected and can be
paired, but no MIDI device is created. It would be good to have this
enabled.

The option is off by default in the upstream build see

Wireless MIDI Adaptor that rely on this being enabled.

Title:
Enable MIDI support
Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:

Bug
Very interesting suggestion. Yes I think we should do this. Since it's a
feature rather than a bug though, we would either need to request an
exception to get it into 17.10, or wait till 18.04.
