Enable a software MIDI output for use with pygame

I want to be able to play MIDI notes from the pygame.midi module, similar to Windows. I believe this means setting up some sort of software/virtual MIDI out device. Fluidsynth appears to be able to do what I need, but I'm not sure how to configure it. I am using KDE Neon. Edit: Here is how I would set up MIDI with Pygame normally. from pygame import midi midi.init() t=midi.Output(midi.get_default_output_id())
