And here I was too thinking I was doing something wrong to cause this in my
LP.

It really annoys me that they have CC 0x68 and note 0x68, if it wasn't for
that you could ignore the message type for whatever you do.

When I got my LP I wrote a python extension and class that uses

So f I understand it correctly then the only problem remaining with this is
the two 0x68 keys not working until you press another key? Do you think we
could add a similar solution into the ALSA driver?
