Have you tried it twice? On my machine whenever I build a new version it
fails to find the audio backend and falls back to dummy. When I stop and
re-run denemo it works. (Some Alsa initialization?). This problem is
audio playback, not sure about MIDI in for that case - do you still have
playback working?

I don't think the libaubio version can be involved. No routines from
libaubio are invoked until you click Input->Audio Input

that is, the same Denemo source code. The suspicion must be that it is a
different version of the portmidi library (I don't know what else might
be involved in getting MIDI in, perhaps ALSA is involved too?)
