This is where is went looking for an explanation:

Here's a link to the old library.

I may add more notes or see if I can fix this since I really enjoy using the editor.

The problem is with python 3.10
The library doesn't support it.

Installing this library seems to fix the problem.
sudo apt-get install python3-rtmidi

Hello, thanks for the report!

I tried uninstalling the python-rtmidi from apt and installing the one from pip, and it works on my end. The old library you linked to seems to be rtmidi-python, but the one we use is python-rtmidi, so I don’t think that issue is related to yours.

Sorry I have no what went wrong, but I’m glad you could make it work :)

Leaving this issue open if anyone encounters the same issue.
