I do. When you just cannot get Alsa to work I found that the best
solution is a Dremel Multipro grinder....... ;-)

[mark at Godzilla mark]$ arecordmidi -l
 Port    Client name                      Port name
 64:0     MIDI 1                           MIDI 1
 64:32    MIDI 1                           MIDI 2
[mark at Godzilla mark]$ arecordmidi --port 64:0 --dump midi-test.mid
