    Thanks. That did the trick. The ALSA page had a link to this:

http://usb-midi-fw.sourceforge.net/

    Nice firmware installer. Downloaded it and the official windows 
drivers, followed instructions and within three minutes and a reboot the 
keyboard is working smoothly. Recognized by JACK and pd without any 
hassle whatsoever. Showed as a third audio device and everything... like 
you said. Very nice.

    Thank you again, for all your help.
