Are you sure it was failing? Pygame (SDL) will print this message if it
can't find the sequencer, but it doesn't raise an exception, and it
doesn't stop sound from working.

>>> import pygame
>>> pygame.init()
open /dev/sequencer: No such file or directory
(6, 0)

If you were actually seeing an exception, it was probably from something
else.
