TiMidity++ is a very high quality software-only MIDI sequencer and MOD player.
It uses sound fonts (GUS-compatible or SF2-compatible) to render MIDI files,
which are not included in this package.

IMF, MED, MTM, STM, STX, ULT, UNI (MOD)
* Does MOD to MIDI conversion (including playback)
* Outputs audio into various audio file formats: WAV, au, AIFF,
Ogg (Vorbis, FLAC, Speex)
* Supports NAS, eSound, JACK, ALSA and OSS drivers
* Uses Gravis Ultrasound compatible patch files and SoundFont2 patch

I dont see anything there that it will use its Ui to play Midi files. However it does say:
" * Plays MIDI files without any external MIDI instruments at all"
when you click on one of the links it will bring up a dialog box askin gyou to "open with" and "save" Can you than open it with Timidity.
Yes there is a bug filed on the "open with" since it defaults to you $HOME dir.
Also as stated above did you try go to >edit>preferences>applications and select what to use to play it?
