HPS replied privately to me that it is the snd_uaudio module I need to
load. Silly me, I should have thought of that.

With the snd_uaudio module loaded, the midi keyboard is recognized when
I plug it in:
Sep 21 23:39:41 kg-quiet kernel: uaudio0: <Evolution Electronics Ltd. USB MIDI keyboard, class 0/0, rev 1.00/2.52, addr 126>
Sep 21 23:39:41 kg-quiet kernel: uaudio0: No playback!
Sep 21 23:39:41 kg-quiet kernel: uaudio0: No recording!
Sep 21 23:39:41 kg-quiet kernel: uaudio0: MIDI sequencer
Sep 21 23:39:41 kg-quiet kernel: pcm1: <USB audio> on uaudio0

and umidi devices are created:

crw-rw-r--  1 root  operator    0, 159 Sep 20 23:20 /dev/umidi0.a
crw-rw-r--  1 root  operator    0, 160 Sep 20 23:20 /dev/umidi0.b

crw-rw-r--  1 root  operator    0, 164 Sep 20 23:20 /dev/umidi0.f

(note: i used devfs rules to get the mode to 0664)

but the midi sound module is not recognized:
Sep 21 23:52:13 kg-quiet kernel: ugen0: <Roland EDIROL SD-20, class 255/0, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 126>

More testing to come.
