After reading this, I recalled I have a second cheap gameport-to-midi
adapter lying around that replicates the game port and provides MIDI
in and  out connectors. I replaced my original three-wire cable with
this. Now I get MIDI out from the DTXPress as expected. 

I found out I can hook up my old three-wire midi cable to my the
replicated game port and can have both the drum kit and my keyboard
connected simultaneously. Excellent!

The conclusion is, that the DTXpress II kit needs a fully connected
midi cable to work.

Thanks for the help, Keith.
