I don't know if this still works in recent Pd, but it used to work to 
tell Pd to have two (2) alsamidi ports, then none are autoconnected.

$ pd -alsamidi -mididev 1     # this autoconnects pd everywhere
$ pd -alsamidi -mididev 1,1   # 2 ports, and no autoconnections
$ pd -version
Pd version 0.42-6
