Of course the Timidity stuff shows up at 128 for ports 0-3 and alsa is saying
that port 0 on the AudioPCI is showing up at 16. But no matter what I seem to

# aplaymidi -l

Are you /sure/ that there is an on-board synth for this
card? For the `-p 16:0` to work you will need to have that.
A lot of vendors of soundblaster-based cards advertised that
their cards did this... but in reality they were providing
some software solution like TiMidity.
The MIDI port you're seeing is probably a game port on your
device. So it's just transferring MIDI data and not making
any noise.
