F11: alsa sequencer error

[Philippe Carriere]

Hi,

since the two or three last releases, I have the following errors:

    Qjackctl messages

        21:27:05.799 Patchbay deactivated.
        21:27:05.851 Statistics reset.
        21:27:05.853 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

    Qsynth messages

        fluidsynth: error: Error opening ALSA sequencer

Finally, even simply using aplaymidi doesn't work:

        $ aplaymidi file.midi 
        ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq
failed: No such file or directory
        Cannot open sequencer - No such file or directory

Present configuration is:
    $ uname -a
    Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.29.1-37.rc1.fc11.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed
Apr 1 08:56:57 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Has something changed or is it a bug ?

Phil.
