Sorry, but you are wrong - the client name does not come from the card's
shortname.  The client gets the name of the first port registered.

I changed my code to:

212 
213         if ((err = snd_dream_midi_init(dream, midi2, 1, "MIDI Out")) < 0)
214                 return err;
215         midi2->port = MPU1_DATA;
216 
217         if ((err = snd_dream_midi_init(dream, midi1, 0, "GM Synth")) < 0)
218                 return err;
219         midi1->port = MPU1_DATA;
220 

And now I get:

 Port    Client name                      Port name                             
 64:0    GM Synth                         GM Synth                              
 64:32   GM Synth                         MIDI Out                              

How can I name the client independently from the ports?
