Well, Florian came up with a workaround solution, proving once again

But you would think that the ALSA sequencer interface would be supported
by now...

I just took a
look at the audio preferences for 2.0.2, there's no
provision for anything ALSA. :(
The other options offered were /dev/sequencer, /dev/sequencer2,
/dev/music, and none. Selecting /dev/sequencer2 and /dev/music gave
me error messages, /dev/sequencer was selected without error but I
got no sound from the test. No MIDI activity appeared on my patchbay.
The Solfege Web site includes instructions for wedding timidity to
/dev/music. Didn't work for me though, I still received the error for
/dev/music.
That about sums up my experience, seems kinda tragic. I'll try a
little longer before resorting to using the Csound5 api to make my own
python ear training program, which kinda seems like gross overkill ...
