sometimes it works, but it is absolutely not reproductible
but this information is useless to set up ecasound so I have tested with
gmidimon. The approach is not the same as it uses /dev/midix or
/dev/snd/midiCXDX
What am I doing wrong ? And why the midi monitoring is so erratic ?
I can repdoduce the problem here, and it's not erratic at all, in fact
the behavior is 100% consistent. If gmidimon or another app already has
the MIDI port open, then aseqdump will get -EBUSY (aka "Resource
temporarily unavailable").
If you had tested these apps one at a time then this would be obvious.
To check who is using the MIDI ports do:
sudo lsof /dev/snd/midiC0D* /dev/midi*
