I would be more than happy to finger ALSA here but from the debugging done so far the problem happens with no evident lost note_off events, just one spurious duplicated note_off debug message from bristol that definitely did not result from an event delivered by the Seq interface. Debuging is an awkward operation since each time I want to concentrate on selected code sections I have to provide updates and wait for the output - its a bit like programming with punchcards.

The difference in ALSA versions could naturally be relevant and will review it.

Regards, Nick.
