Does anyone know if Darwine can be fixed to handle virtual midi ports correctly? They work very sporadically right now. It seems to be related to getting the ports flushed or initialized or something. When there is a virtual midi port present (under OSX), Wine seems to see it and lists it as an available midi port, but I have not been able to consistently get that port to function correctly. Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't and it seems to related to switching it on and off in some fashion makes it work, though I can't seem to find a pattern that will work consistently.
All I can figure is that somehow Wine is not handling midi ports in a way that is compatible with OSX virtual midi ports.
Anyone have any experience or knowledge in this area?
As far as I know, only Emmanuel Maillard has touched the MIDI code in the Core Audio driver. I'm CC'ing him, just to be sure he sees this.
