No, I've checked all the sounds and I also checked the generated MIDI file, the notes are actually missing, so the problem is definitely caused by LilyPond.

Just thinking out loud, but could it be that the default sound font doesn't have the instruments you are trying to use?

It seems that midiDrumPitches doesn’t get applied. Do I have to do that manually? What else could be wrong?

Just now realised that I didn’t send my last answer to the list.

Anyway, I now found my mistake: You need to apply “drumPitchTable = #(alist->hash-table midiDrumPitches)” to the DrumStaff (similar to drumStyleTable). I don’t think this is documented anywhere, I only found it in the code.
