See ice1724.c:snd_vt1724_probe line 2546:

if (! c->no_mpu401) {
	if (ice->eeprom.data[ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF] & VT1724_CFG_MPU401) {
			struct snd_rawmidi *rmidi;

			err = snd_rawmidi_new(card, "MIDI", 0, 0, 1, &rmidi);
..................


The Phase cards in phase.c have no no_mpu401 defined BUT they do not 
have the VT1724_CFG_MPU401 bit defined in their ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF eeprom 
byte. As a result, the code creating midi device gets skipped.

Take a look at juli.c and prodigy192c code (juli_eeprom[], 
prodigy71_eeprom[]). They have the VT1724_CFG_MPU401 bit (0x20) set. You 
should fix that by:

--- a/pci/ice1712/phase.c
+++ b/pci/ice1712/phase.c
@@ -161,7 +161,8 @@ static int __devinit phase22_add_controls(struct 
snd_ice1712
  }

  static unsigned char phase22_eeprom[] __devinitdata = {
-       [ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF]     = 0x00,  /* 1xADC, 1xDACs */
+       [ICE_EEP2_SYSCONF]     = 0x00 | VT1724_CFG_MPU401,      /* 1xADC,
+                                                          1xDACs, mpu401 */
         [ICE_EEP2_ACLINK]      = 0x80,  /* I2S */
         [ICE_EEP2_I2S]         = 0xf8,  /* vol, 96k, 24bit */
         [ICE_EEP2_SPDIF]       = 0xc3,  /* out-en, out-int, spdif-in */




The same applies for phase28 if it offers midi.
