I've just noticed under /proc/asound/VirMIDI is oss_mixer which when cat
gives zero levels.
Should there also be some sort of alsa mixer there? Or should the alsa
oss compatibility take care of that?

The virtual MIDI ports convert between old
programs using /dev/midi*
and new programs using ALSA sequencer ports. They do not connect
ALSA sequencer programs together; use the through ports for this.
I'm not sure I understand that. I've been connecting ALSA sequencer
clients with the virmidi ports for years. I can send a screenshot of my
MIDI connections in QJackCtl, with virmidi ports connected to QSynth,
Jack Rack, the Emu10k1 synth, etc. But I may misunderstand what you're
telling me.
I think you can achieve what you want by
connecting a virmidi port and a
through port together.
Been there, tried that, got no joy. :(
Btw, my results with this problem have been verified by another user of
Demudi and the 2.6.14 kernel. Should I be looking at anything else in
the system that might cause the trouble ? I'm terribly ignorant about
the 2.6 kernels...
Well, I can use the MIDI Thru for new work in Demudi.
Best,
