Quote | May I ask: how can you test alsa is working properly ? | I would say the best thing to do is proceed step wise: 1. Can you play an mp3 through your PC soundcard Y/N? 2. If Y, then can you play/record a midi file through your midi box Y/N? If you can post the answers to these and similar questions it will enable others to help.
Quote | Also a bit off topic but is it possible to get jack running and jack rack? | The extension I sent you previously took the alsa extension in the repository and added files to give some or all of the functionality of aseqnet, aseqdump, arecordmidi, aplaymidi, aconnect, iecset, arecord, aplay, amixer, amidi, alsamixer & alsalisp (I don't remember exactly which ones were in the extension to start with). If I recall correctly, I had to compile alsa from scratch with "plug-ins enabled" when I was trying to get a bluetooth headset to work and this enabled jack - I may be wrong but I don't believe this functionality was in either the original or the modified alsa extension.
You may need to start playing around with an .asoundrc (alsa configuration) file to get the sort of functionality you are looking for.
