You could still do that if you wish. Use a soft synth as the MIDI device. No need to worry about the channel, use a separate MIDI or instrument track for the synth.
The Audio Kontrol 1 has two pair of outputs and the headphone output on the interface is switchable between them.
Route all of your audio except the click track through a master bus in SONAR and send the SONAR master bus to the Audio Kontrol 1 outputs 1/2 for main output and send the click track directly to output 3/4. Switch the headphones to monitor 3/4. Alternately if you need to the other audio with the click track in the headphones, create an additional headphone bus. Set the output of the headphone bus to 3/4 of the Audio Kontrol 1. Set the output of the click track to the headphone bus and add a sends from the audio tracks to the headphone bus.
