If you are using QuickTime on Mac OS X, as I guess, this is an old known 
problem:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2004-02/msg00346.html

It is not clear to me if Lilypond is not producing correct MIDI output, 
though - in which case, a bug report should be filed somewhere, 
probably. In the meantime, you may try some different MIDI player, as 
Mighty MIDI (http://xmidi.com/apps.html).

As we are on this matter, I would like to point out that the following

\version "2.9.8"
\score
{
  \context StaffGroup
  <<
    % Staff
    \new Staff
    {
      \time 3/4
      \key d \major
      \tempo 4=100
      % Music here...
    }
  >>
  \layout { }
  \midi { \time 4=110 }
}

is played with tempo = 100, not 110. Is this a bug?

Regards
Nicola
