Hi Iain: I just took a look at the audio preferences for 2.0.2, there's no provision for anything ALSA. :( The other options offered were /dev/sequencer, /dev/sequencer2, /dev/music, and none. Selecting /dev/sequencer2 and /dev/music gave me error messages, /dev/sequencer was selected without error but I got no sound from the test. No MIDI activity appeared on my patchbay. The Solfege Web site includes instructions for wedding timidity to /dev/music. Didn't work for me though, I still received the error for /dev/music. Best, dp
