I think it's that old, elusive bug too.

This is kind of an interesting edge case.  I intended to take the exported 
files and play them with pmidi immediately after exporting them.  Since I 
would control what MIDI port I used with pmidi, it was completely irrelevant 
to me whether the file played in Rosegarden or not, so I never played it.

That explains why the controller settings were all weird!  I was pretty sure I 
wouldn't have left them that way.

It's probably something tricky and weird and complicated to fix.  Considering 
how unusual these circumstances are, it's bug I'm prepared to ignore.

Indeed, that would be nice.

I've modified a version of the file to have a more explicit and obvious tempo 
ramp.  This makes it more apparent that you don't, in fact, do anything with 
tempo ramps yet.  Oh well.

I played it before exporting, and the volume came out fine.  It played all the 
way to the end this time.  Progress!

That's all the testing time I have for now.
