You could use a virtual midi connection using the snd-virmidi virtual
card, which works even with only Pd as clients. Example: 


$ su -c modprobe snd-virmidi

$ aconnect -lio
client 0: 'System' [type=kernel]
    0 'Timer           '
    1 'Announce        '
client 64: 'Rawmidi 0 - M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401' [type=kernel]
    0 'M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401'
client 72: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-0' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-0     '
client 73: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-1' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-1     '
client 74: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-2' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-2     '
client 75: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-3' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-3
	
$ aconnect 72:0 74:0

$ aconnect -lio
client 0: 'System' [type=kernel]
    0 'Timer           '
    1 'Announce        '
client 64: 'Rawmidi 0 - M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401' [type=kernel]
    0 'M Audio Audiophile 24/96 MPU-401'
client 72: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-0' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-0     '
        Connecting To: 74:0
client 73: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-1' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-1     '
client 74: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-2' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-2     '
        Connected From: 72:0
client 75: 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-3' [type=kernel]
    0 'VirMIDI 1-3 


$ pd -midioutdev 11 -midiindev 13 
(using 11 = 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-0' + 1 and 13 = 'Virtual Raw MIDI 1-2' + 1)

Now open "Test Audio and MIDI" and if you enable "MIDI OUT" you should
see the notes coming in at "MIDI IN". 

Ciao
