New issue 2414 by address@hidden: Midi back end handles lyrics and  
beams incorrectly
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2414

Reported by Frank Steinmetzger:

I just discovered that 2.14 produces different lyrics for PDF and MIDI  
output, when there are manual beams.

A minimal example is attached. Note that, in the PDF, the text "three and
four" appears as expected under the notes, whereas in the MIDI, the notes  
on "three and" are regarded as a melisma.

music = \relative c'' { g4 a8( g) f8[ g] g4 }
text = \lyricmode { one twohoo three and four }
\score {
        <<
                \new Staff = "staff" \new Voice = "voice" \music
                \new Lyrics \lyricsto "voice" \text
        >>
        \layout{}
        \midi{}
}

The attached images show the graphical output, and the midi as rendered by  
Noteworthy composer.
