[Csnd] Need basic MIDI help

Subject[Csnd] Need basic MIDI help
Could someone take a second and troubleshoot this for me? I'm trying to 
get realtime MIDI control going following the instructions in the online 
canonical manual, and I'm obviously doing something wrong.

I'm using winsound v4.23f08 under WinXP, and my MIDI device is a TASCAM 
FW-1804. Here's the instrument...

instr1
icps cpsmidi
print icps
endin

And here's the score...

i 1 0 12
e

What happens when I run this is that Csound sits for 12 seconds, as 
expected. But all it prints is icps=8.176 (this is before I even touch 
the keyboard), and it doesn't seem to receive any values as I play on the 
keyboard.

In the menus on the Csound graphical interface, it does properly list the 
MIDI device as FW1804 Port 1.

Any quick advice on what I need to change here to get this simple example 
working? Thanks...
