For the trunk version there is a new option for fast midi-file
rendering. Can you try to see if that makes any difference?

fluidsynth -F fluidsynth.raw /usr/share/soundfonts/PCLite.sf2 tune.mid

There is a related ticket (#24) but your issue is not exactly the same
if it only happens when you're rendering to file.

If the fast midi-file rendering does not help, perhaps we could have a
look at the midi file examine the problem a bit deeper.
