I don't think you can refer to midi by name in the
same way as audio
ports. For example, as above you have hw:2,0 or hw:EWX2496_1, but you can
not use hw:ICE1712 - TerraTec EWX24/96. What I am saying is that EWX2496_1
is a device, not a name or description. MIDI does not have this. However,
qjackctl at least does use the description. So what you want to change is
the description that is shown as "Name" above. The udev rules will be
different than those used to change the device because you are changing a
different part of things. Because of a flood, I don't have access to any
of my MIDI IFs to try things here though.
The problem here is that I manually can connect
20:TerraTec EWX24/96
|- 0:TerraTec EWX 24/96 MIDI
24:TerraTec EWX24/96
|- 0:TerraTec EWX 24/96 MIDI
they always are distinguished by "20" and "24", the sequence of the
cards always is the same, but QjactCtl's Patchbay and aj-snapshot are
unable to restore the connections automatically.
