There is a MIDI port sequence defined for SMFs.
<FF 21 01 pp> which is
supposed to come at the start of a track. It specifies which port on
the computer the track is to be sent to. I've never tired using this
and don't even know if the alsa sequencer code supports it.
One ALSA sequencer port corresponds to a MIDI port. To support this,
the player application has to send the track to a different port.
(aplaymidi does this.)
