On OS 9 I always had the problem with either the MOTU Fastlane or the
MidiSport 2x2 that if the computer was put to sleep, the interface had to be
unplugged and re-plugged (to reset the USB bus?) after wake-up.

Now under OS X it appears that the replugging is no longer necessary, but my
MIDI applicaton must be quit and restarted. Is there anything I can do in
my application to improve its behavior in this regard? My OS X testing is
with the MOTU Fastlane because the MidiSport 2x2 does not work at all for me
under OS X.

I can replicate this behavior with the MOTU Fastlane 2x2 on two different machines. Put the machine to sleep, wake it up again, and the interface will no longer send MIDI notes.

However, the Midisport 2x2 still works fine in this scenario, so CoreMIDI is probably not at fault here. (Unless there is a CoreMIDI or USB bug that the Midisport driver works around and the MOTU driver doesn't -- hey, anything's possible.). I don't suggest that you change your app to do anything special, just report the bug to MOTU and hope they fix it.

(If you are desperate in the short term, you could investigate calling MIDIReset() upon waking up--that may or may not have some effect. But that's a really bad idea to do in shipping code.)
