Thanks.  There's a couple of really nice clues in there, particularly:
snd_seq_midi            8608  1
snd_seq_midi_event      7936  3 snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_virmidi
snd_seq_midi_emul       8064  1 snd_emux_synth
snd_seq                53776  16 
snd_seq_device          8264  7 
snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_emu10k1_synth,snd_emux_synth,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi

Yeah, I'd already worked that one out in trying to find a solution to my 
current problem.  Not that I'm all that interested in using the card for MIDI 
synthesis.

I'll have a play around with it when I get the time again.  Will report the 
results back here.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
