I suppose it should not make any difference.. I tried it. Here's the
results:

timidity   -Os -o plug:dmix somefile.mid=20

works like a charm.. But

timidity -Os -o dmix somefile.mid


shows behaviour similar to the one you described. Volume skipping.
Voices dropping out. Panning is changing randomly... Very weird. doesn't
work at all really..

I tried some sampling rates (with and w/o "plug" plugin):

timidity   -Os -o "plug:'dmix:RATE=3D48000'"

works superb

timidity   -Os -o "dmix:RATE=3D48000"=20

show the same behaviour.. It's the same for other sampling rates as
well.. So maybe the plug plugin does something better than the dmix
plugin.. weird..
