Did you set the MIDI instrument?  Could you send a short example file
that demonstrates this?

There's two possible causes:
1.  The LilyPond syntax for percussion changed between 1.6 and 2.1, and
convert-ly didn't fix everything.
2.  There's a bug in the MIDI code for percussion in 2.1

Having a short example will let us figure out which one it is.
