You could tell snd-seq-dummy to provide multiple ports: options snd-seq-dummy ports=2 duplex=1 Then look up the card IDs, compute the client numbers, and connect the corresponding ports: aconnect 48:0 14:2 aconnect 14:2 48:0 aconnect 52:0 14:0 aconnect 14:0 52:0 Then you always have the ports 14:1 and 14:3 for a known keyboard.
