Using USB for MIDI is tough ;). However, to play MIDI events by external equipment I'm using jack2's "-Xalsarawmidi" in combination with a2jmidi_bridge and PCI (Two Envy24 TerraTec 24/96)/PCIe (RME HDSPe AIO) MIDI interfaces only. I'm not using my swissonic USB MIDI.
Don't disable your ac97, perhaps it ships with a parallel port MIDI that might be good. Unfortunately my machine don't has parallel port MIDI.
