The AC'97 controller can be autodetected because it's a PCI device, but this isn't the case for the MIDI port. Use the snd-mpu401 driver, and set the port and irq parameters to the same values you've configured in the BIOS setup, i.e.: alias snd-card-0 snd-ice1712 alias snd-card-1 snd-intel8x0 alias snd-card-2 snd-mpu401 options snd-ice1712 index=0 options snd-intel8x0 index=1 options snd-mpu401 index=2 port=0x330 irq=10 HTH Clemens
