What is apparent is that it may be a bad idea to first pause a number of
bars and only then include \global with a different \tempo .
But the location of the tempo change aside your principal problem, like
before, seems to be that timidity as a player skips initial rests.
Try fluidsynth -ia pulseaudio -n on your MIDI file as an alternative (on
my system, I get inexplicable problems with -ia pipewire or -ia alsa)
instead.
