It's been pointed out to me that I hadn't read the manual thoroughly enough - I
should have used the \unfoldRepeats command.

Having accepted the rap over the knuckles, I must say that I think that the
\midi command should default to unfolded repeats.

I'm trying to think of a situation where playing the second-time ending
immediately after the first-time one would be desirable. I suppose that it would
be helpful if midi output is being used as a proof-reading assistant, to reduce
the time it takes to check the entire score.
