Hi Doug,
Thanks for your response.

Yes; this was tried before I sent out my query.
I was able to get the external MIDI port to work with the card. For the
record, here is what I did:
(a) Setup the card to work in SB compatibility mode using the DOS tool
supplied with the sound card.
(b) Configured a kernel with the `sb0' device and `mpu0' with the appropriate
options for IRQ etc.
The default interrupt used by `mpu0' (6) is used by the floppy controller
`fdc0', so you may have to change it as needed (use boot -c).
(c) Created the appropriate devices in /dev/ as mentioned in the sources
...isa/sound/*.
`playmidi -e' now works!
The hardware seems to respond to both `sb' and `wss' probes, so be sure not
to have both these devices configured in your kernel. The MIDI interface
seems not to work if the `wss' driver probes the device first.
