Neither ecasound nor gmidimon support MIDI with ALSA correctly. As a workaround, load the snd-virmidi driver (which make another /dev/midi* available) and connect its sequencer port to the UM2's second port. > Surprisingly, aseqdump is detecting both devices.

When an application tries to open the internal ALSA device node (/dev/snd/midiCxDx), it will get the first free subdevice, i.e., the first port that isn't already in use. HTH Clemens
