To find out what are the MIDI ports ALSA knows, try `pmidi -l` or 
`aconnect -lio`; then try to play a midifile with pmidi -p <port> <filename>

You can configure Muse MIDI ports under Config-->midi ports. 
Maybe Muse is crashing because of audio configuration; try to disable the 
audio in Muse (Config-->Audio system-->Device=none).
You can try also other sequencers like jazz or noteedit to see if MIDI works;
