No, please. This is highly unlikely. Iff something on the bus would
spoof the device ID of the Midi interface things would go crazzy long
before a note on event would be recognized ...

I guess you're right: I have 2 USB buses (one onboard (2nd) and one
in front (1st), inside a memory cards reader) and the midi keyboard
shares the 2nd bus with mouse and azerty keyboard...
Yes, but that's absolutely normal. USB is a _bus_ after all (i.e. many
devices can talk over it).
I noticed
there's no way to plug an usb device on the 1st bus: it only cares
about memory cards. So I unplugged both mouse & azerty keyboard but
it doesn't change anything.
As to be expected :-)
Do you think this problem could come from an hardware
failure into
my SB Live sound card?
How should that happen? If no midi note event shows up in the dump
the problem must be in qsynth (or the sound font it uses). What sound
found do you use, BTW?
