Do you use Frescobaldi or some other editor? Do you listen to the MIDI 
file from within Frescobaldi or using some other MIDI player? If you, by 
chance, have the MIDI file open in some other MIDI player, LilyPond is 
probably not able to write to the file until you have closed that MIDI 
player again.
