Judging by the info here
https://wiki.winehq.org/MIDI#Selecting_the_Output_-_the_MIDI_mapper I think
this is just expected behaviour.
Especially the sentence "In Wine, the mapper forwards to the first device
(number 0) by default." seems to indicate this happens automatically.
I've also been able to get a usable port by adding snd-seq-dummy/Midi Through
as the first port, this one I can actually use with software synths.

It does seem like the docs are out of date, since there's no screen winecfg
that shows the available devices as mentioned in these sentences:
"The order is shown in winecfg, with device #0 occuring topmost. If this
happens to be the "MIDI through" port on your system with SW-only synthesizers,
you need to change the configuration via the registry."

It would be nice if there would a configurable option in wine to choose which
device to use.
