Committed my patch #2026097 ("ALSA: Try both 65:0 and 17:0 by default"), with a

slight modification to the README changes. (I don't know how to interpret all
the output from aconnect, so I'm only documenting "the most important bit".)

 7.6.1) Playing sound with ALSA sequencer:                        [UNIX ONLY]

 Here is a little howto on how to use the ALSA sequencer with your soundcard.
 In all cases, to have a list of all the sequencer ports you have, try the
 command "aconnect -o -l". This should give output similar to:
-client 64: 'External MIDI 0' [type=kernel]
-    0 'MIDI 0-0        '
-client 65: 'Emu10k1 WaveTable' [type=kernel]
+
+client 14: 'Midi Through' [type=kernel]
+    0 'Midi Through Port-0'
+client 16: 'SBLive! Value [CT4832]' [type=kernel]
+    0 'EMU10K1 MPU-401 (UART)'
+client 17: 'Emu10k1 WaveTable' [type=kernel]
     0 'Emu10k1 Port 0  '
     1 'Emu10k1 Port 1  '
     2 'Emu10k1 Port 2  '
     3 'Emu10k1 Port 3  '
-client 128: 'Client-128' [type=user]
+client 128: 'TiMidity' [type=user]
     0 'TiMidity port 0 '
     1 'TiMidity port 1 '
+    2 'TiMidity port 2 '
+    3 'TiMidity port 3 '
 
-This means the external MIDI output of the sound card is located on the
-port 64:0, four WaveTable MIDI outputs in 65:0, 65:1, 65:2
-and 65:3, and two TiMidity ports, located at 128:0 and 128:1.
+The most important bit here is that there are four WaveTable MIDI outputs
+located at 17:0, 17:1, 17:2 and 17:3, and four TiMidity ports located at 128:0,
+128:1, 128:2 and 128:3.
 
 If you have a FM-chip on your card, like the SB16, then you have to load
 the SoundFonts using the sbiload software. Example:
-  sbiload -p 65:0 /etc/std.o3 /etc/drums.o3
+  sbiload -p 17:0 /etc/std.o3 /etc/drums.o3
 
 If you have a WaveTable capable sound card, you have to load a sbk or sf2
-SoundFont using the sfxload software. Example:
+SoundFont using the sfxload or asfxload software. Example:
   sfxload /path/to/8mbgmsfx.sf2
 
 If you don't have a MIDI capable soundcard, there are two options: FluidSynth
