If Rosegarden or Muse then MMC and MTC aren't required
because they both have jackd transport support. You
may have to play with various combinations of Ardour
being and not being the Time Master...

Ardour will slave to MTC but not Master. Ardour will
recieve MMC and it will send MIDI parameters.

Are you using the Alsa Seq device in the ardour.rc
file? You may want to rm any other MIDI device
entries. I recall multiple entries causing some
problem.

What is the "external sequencer" device?
