Most mergers don't handle real-time data well.  Some do a reasonably good 
job, but you may have to use a designated input (often port 1) for the clock 
source to get a stable timing.

No, that's not how MIDI clock works.  You'd get the two sequences at their 
original tempo plus an unrelated MIDI clock that is only seen downstream of 
the merger.
