Actually this brings up another issue that we have and we know about.
Direct is not yet supported for hardware synths, but there is a sys file
for it.  There are several other options like this which are synthesizer
specific but always have a sys file.

The way to see that it is not supported is to cat the sys file after you
change the valu; it will not reflect your change if it isn't supported.

We have chatted some about this on irc, and it is looking like it will
take a redesign of the sys files to fix this.
