Load the snd-virmidi module, use aconnect to connect from the UM-1 to the first virtual port and from the first virtual port to the Yamaha port. Then tell your programs to use /dev/midi03, or try to create a symlink from /dev/midi to /dev/midi03, or just load the snd-virmidi module at index 0. HTH Clemens
