I don't know if USB-MIDI works in linux, and in this case in  
particular, so use the old round MIDI jacks/cables.

'ls -la /dev/snd' should say something like
crw-rw----  1 root audio 116, 16 mar 16 08:56 midiC0D0
so in this case you should either be root (not recommended) or member  
of the audio group to have the rights (rw) to use the device.

If you see your username instead of "root" there, you're fine.
If not, run 'groups' to see if you're a member of the audio group and  
if you aren't run 'usermod -G audio -a your-username' as root
