This is the MIDI port of your sound card.  The cs46xx driver names it
"CS46XX" to differentiate it from any other MIDI ports you (might)
have.

You should be able to play to this port with

	aplaymidi -p 64:0 something.mid

(or pmidi instead of aplaymidi).  This port will also show up in your
sequencer application.

No; you don't need any Through port unless you want to route MIDI data
in complicated ways.  If you really want it, you can load the
snd-seq-dummy module manually (newer versions of ALSA load it by
default).
