Bug#575575: timidity MIDI playback plays drums that should be musical notes

[Matthew W. Miller]

Package: libsdl-mixer1.2
Version: 1.2.8-6+b1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

When using timidity MIDI playback, music played in MIDI channels 10 and
16 are interpreted as drums.  Really, only channel 10 should default to
drums, according to the MIDI standard; drums on channel 16 are a
Microsoft substandard. :)

To fix this misfeature, please apply the attached patch.  Contrary to
what the comment above the affected line says, this is *not* a runtime
option in SDL_mixer, as far as I can tell.
