The bug report is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=693011
and it was introduced with the new noise-shaping code.
It suggests a less invasive workaround to make it use the old noise shaper:
    --noise-shaping=1

I've applied the bug fix to the Ubuntu source code; you'll find the
fixed package(s) under
    http://martinwguy.co.uk/test
It is probably enough to fetch and install
    timidity_2.13.2-40.3+nocrackle_amd64.deb (64-bit)
or
    timidity_2.13.2-40.3+nocrackle_i386.deb (32-bit)

I've also submitted a bug report to Ubuntu
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/timidity/+bug/1587215
so let's hope they apply the fix retroactively as part of the maintenance;
If they do, their 2.13.2-40.4 will replace the above packages.

Thanks for your help in resolving this issue
