Another FWD on the same subject.
Perhaps something to add to sound-usage.txt

Greetings:

  Okay, I figured out how to do this. Here's how I did it :

        1. Downloaded CVS dosemu.
        2. Applied Stas's patch and compiled
        3. Linked ALSA virmidi (/dev/snd/C1D0 on my system) to
~/.dosemu/run/dosemu-midi
        4. Linked my SBLive MIDI port (/dev/midi00) to
~/.dosemu/run/dosemu-midi_in
        5. Connect virmidi port to synth (EMU10k1, TiMidity, whatever)
via kaconnect or ALSA MIDI patch bay
        6. Start dosemu
        7. Install vapimpu.com without IRQ flag
        8. Start Seq+, set MIDI Thru to On
        9. Enjoy !

  Very cool. Btw, dosemu now loads version 1.51 of the vapimpu driver.
Also, I can run dosemu full-screen in X. The font aliasing gets pretty
severe at high-res, but it's still cool.

  So there you have it. Stas, thanks a lot: I'll continue tests and will
let you know how I fare. Steve, Allan: You can now have a fully
operational Seq+, so have at it. :)

Best regards,

Dave Phillips
