Hello!
I'm having an issue with my Pixel 2 sending MIDI to my laptop, running Arch (kernel 5.0.7-arch1-1-ARCH) with Gnome. The phone should create a MIDI port when it enters USB MIDI mode, but nothing is listed in aconnect -l aside from the default System and MIDI through port
lsusb -tshows that it's using the snd-usb-audio driver, which should include a MIDI driver if I understand correctly
/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci_hcd/6p, 5000M
|__ Port 2: Dev 4, If 0, Class=Audio, Driver=snd-usb-audio, 5000M
|__ Port 2: Dev 4, If 1, Class=Audio, Driver=snd-usb-audio, 5000M
|__ Port 2: Dev 4, If 2, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=, 5000MI've also tested this on an Ubuntu 18.10 live USB with identical results, and on a Macbook Pro 11,4 which recognizes the MIDI interface and works fine.
Here's what popped out to me from the output of
sudo lsusb -d 0944:010f -vfor a working USB MIDI device (Korg NanoKontrol) compared to my Pixel 2:
The only meaningful difference I can see is that the NanoKontrol interface has 1 interface described below

.....I'm thinking that I'd need to rewrite the device descriptor somehow, or maybe this is a kernel module level issue. Any pointers in the right direction are much appreciated.
