sorry if i am totally off topic, but i haven't read the entire thread.
(esp. sorry if i am saying something obvious here)

you have to enable pd's alsamidi support in order to use it (default is
OSS/midi); use the "-alsamidi" flag to do so.

furthermore, pd does NOT autoconnect to the available hardware devices.
you have to do so by hand (aconnect, [aconnect], or qjackctl (which is
handy as it comes with a gui)

and you have to switch your ua-25 into "advance" mode (there is a switch
at the back of the device)

i just tried this and it works:
- switch UA-25 to advance mode
- start "pd -alsamidi -mididev 1"
- start qjackctl
- in connections/MIDI you should now see "UA-25" and "Pure Data" and
connect them: voila
