Seems to not compile the native addon properly.

$ npm install -g node-keyboard
/home/aaron/.npm-global/bin/node-keyboard -> /home/aaron/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/node-keyboard/bin/cli.js

> [email protected] install /home/aaron/.npm-global/lib/node_modules/node-keyboard/node_modules/midi

I think it has to do with some aspect of alsa not being available:

In file included from ../src/node-midi.cpp:6:0:
../src/lib/RtMidi/RtMidi.cpp:1095:28: fatal error: alsa/asoundlib.h: No such file or directory

I fixed it shortly after writing this. https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1586707 sudo apt install libasound2-dev
