rene@6bap:~$ aplaymidi -l

  14:0    Midi Through                     Midi Through Port-0

<same noise>

So, OPL2 same deal. However -- there is a problem after all. With this as 
the source file:

http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/opl3/jzz30xg.mid

using the old sbiload with the sb and o3 patches respectively, produces:

http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/opl3/jzz30xg-cs4236b_opl3-seq-sb.ogg
http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/opl3/jzz30xg-cs4236b_opl3-seq-o3.ogg

while with the new hwdep sbiload, I hear:

http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/opl3/jzz30xg-cs4236b_opl3-hwdep-sb.ogg
http://members.home.nl/rene.herman/opl3/jzz30xg-cs4236b_opl3-hwdep-o3.ogg

While much less annoying... something's still missing. The former are how 
they are supposed to be rendered. A problem with the "drums"?
