I try to get my midi keyboard running with lmms.

The device ( a yamaha psx e223 connected via a midi-mate 2 ) is listed when i run:

amidi -l
IO  hw:1,0,0  USB Device 0x2573:0x10c2 MIDI 1
IO  hw:1,0,1  USB Device 0x2573:0x10c2 MIDI 2

When i type lsusb its not listed.

Inside LMMS whenever i configure midi in settings it always jumps back to 'dummy' after i restart LMMS to apply the new settings.

I also tryed to setup JACK but always get these errors when trying to start it:

Mon Feb 10 22:16:34 2014: ERROR: control open "/dev/audio" (No such file or directory)
Mon Feb 10 22:16:34 2014: ERROR: cannot register object path "/org/freedesktop/ReserveDevice1/Audio0": A handler is already registered for /org/freedesktop/ReserveDevice1/Audio0

Mon Feb 10 22:16:34 2014: ERROR: JackServer::Open failed with -1
Mon Feb 10 22:16:34 2014: ERROR: Failed to open server

Edit.: In aseqdump no events show up

Any ideas how to proceed?

try this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1303306

i'm thinking you didn't make the connections in JACK and if so that is your problem but the steps on that tutorial should work and the tutorial uses hardware which is VERY similar to yours

** also check your midi connections. remember out on keyboard to in on the midi interface this is a very common problem midi should have been designed with differently shaped plugs on each end but such is life.
