RE: MIDI dynamics seem completely broken

[Linda Cantoni]

Not long ago I saw a message here that it is a bug.  You can turn dynamics
off in the midi in order to get the notes to be heard, albeit without the
crescendi and decrescendi.  (They'll still be in the printed output.)
Here's the command:

\midi { \tempo 4 = 84
      \context {
        \Voice
        \remove "Dynamic_performer"
        \remove "Span_dynamic_performer"
       }

Subject: MIDI dynamics seem completely broken

If I run the following simple test of dynamics through lilypond (I've 
tried both 2.6.3 and 2.7.22):

\version "2.6.0"
\score {
   \relative c'' {
     c16\p c c c c\< d e f g\f g g g g\> f e d c\p c c c c4
   }
   \midi {}
   \layout {}
}

and play the resulting MIDI file with timidity, all but eight of the 
notes are completely silent. (I hear the first five Cs, the first and 
last Gs, and the next C.)

Is it just me? I'd be surprised that this kind of a bug would go unnoticed.
