Did you happen to check: 
Applications -> Sound & Video -> Volume Control ?
Scrolling through all the devises shows mute as default after a new
installation.

Hi Folks,

Can anyone give me any pointers?

I posted earlier that I can get my CDROM to play sounds
via the Yamaha YMF-724F Sound card but I cannot seem
to get MIDI to work.  I have tried EVERYTHING from KMID,
rosegarden and the low-level programs: pmidi, aplaymidi
and I cannot get any sound coming out.  Of course I used
the KMix / alsamixer to ensure that MASTER, PCM, etc were
all enabled and volume turned up.  What's left.  Below is
my configuration in

/etc/modprobe.conf:

# Note: for use under 2.4, changes must also be made to modules.conf!
alias eth0 e100
alias scsi_hostadapter sym53c8xx
alias usb-controller uhci-hcd

# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
alias snd-card-0 snd-ymfpci

# module options should go here
options snd-ymfpci index=0 mpu_port=0x330

# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0

# card #0
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
install snd-ymfpci /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-ymfpci
&& /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-ymfpci { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1
|| : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ymfpci
alias snd-card-0 snd-ymfpci
install snd-ymfpci /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-ymfpci
&& /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-ymfpci { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1
|| : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-ymfpci

Kind regards,
Dan
