[LAU] QJackCtl starts up with message window displaying this message

Hi! When QJackCtl starts up now, it always displays the message window with this showing in it: 21:30:58.980 Patchbay deactivated. 21:30:58.999 Statistics reset. 21:30:59.007 Could not open ALSA sequencer as a client. ALSA MIDI patchbay will be not available. ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory Cannot connect to server request channel jack server is not running or cannot be started Happens whether I've got it set to use RAW or SEQ midi. I don't have QJackCtl set to start JACK on startup, I start it manually. When I start it manually, it starts up and everything audio works fine. But if I set it to use SEQ, there are no entries in MIDI or ALSA tab. If I set it to use RAW, it finds my E-MU XMidiX1 and adds 1 in and 1 out port. That puts only 1 midi_capture_1 port on the MIDI tab, though. It apparently no longer finds it as an outport (I can tell because the OUT port light on my interface doesn't come on.

Using QJackCtl 0.3.12 (QT 4.8.6) on 64-bit Aptosid (Debian Sid) kernel 3.19.0-1.slh.4-aptosid-amd64. And apparently the old ALSA package has been turned into a dummy and replaced with kmod? Any ideas? Thanks. See what happens when you upgrade things and *everything just seems to work* except for weird little things like this? Everything before upgrade was working with no problems.
