It doesn't seem to be using a standard MIDI interface, but there's a chance that it accepts raw MIDI byte streams. Can you check the patch below?
With that patch, the device shows up, but aseqdump does not report any MIDI events after connecting to it.
The Windows drivers are called "USB Serial Converter" and "USB Serial Port", so maybe it's all wrapped in a different protocol. Does that name ring a bell?
That's possible, and it should be easy to support these type of devices in ALSA. However, some logic is neccessary to configure the hardware to its correct baud rate and hardware protocol. The easiest way to determine the setup sequence is certainly to sniff the Windows driver communication with some tool like usbsnoop. Can you give that a try?
