It has no hardware MIDI engine, neither does the XG.

All MIDI processing has to be done in software.

The only cards I know of with hardware MIDI synth supported on ALSA are
EMU8K/EMU10K.

The rest will require a software MIDI engine. Something like a modified

BTW I dont count the FM-OPL "midi synths" like CS42xx as "hardware synth"
