Bug Description

In order to have tolerable latency, the timidity-daemon package has in /etc/init.d/timidity the line
TIM_ALSASEQPARAMS="-B2,8"

However, this setting never reaches the timidity daemon since the timidity package overwrites it in /etc/default/timidity with
# Setting overrides (of /etc/timidity.conf) for the ALSA sequencer daemon
TIM_ALSASEQPARAMS="-Os"

Consequently, the timidity daemon exhibits the kind of latency that is to be expected for batch playback of Midi files where latency is not a problem.
