[Virtual-pkg-base-maintainers] Bug#787393: base: snd_seq_midi module no longer loaded on boot

[Forrest Cahoon]

Package: base
Severity: normal

I know I was able to use MIDI input devices on my computer on Monday
2015-05-25, but something happened after an "aptitude full-upgrade" so that
they stopped working by Thursday 2015-05-28.

I tracked the issue down to the fact that the kernel module snd_seq_midi is no
longer getting loaded; "modprobe snd_seq_midi" restores the functionality.

How did this module get loaded before? What is the best way to ensure it is
always loaded?
