See #434989 as Cyril has pointed out. This warning should be ignored.

NtEd requires the ALSA sequencer device (/dev/snd/seq). Just load the 
snd_seq module (modprobe snd_seq) and NtEd shouldn't complain anymore.

If you try timidity as an ALSA sequencer client (-iA) it will require 
the /dev/snd/seq device too.
