Hi all,

Using a template for dynamics is a convenient way of writing, when dealing with voices following the same dynamics pattern. Basically it works very well for producing beautiful scores, and also controlling MIDI. But now I have found something that might be a bug, even if I hope it is just a mistake of mine. Here is a small example:

|\version "2.18.2"||
||||
||Music = {||
||  a'4 a' a' a'||
||  a'4 a' a' a'||
||}||
||||
||Dynamics = { ||
||  s4\ppp s s s||
||  s4\fff s s s||
||}||
||||
||\score {||
||   \new Staff <<||
||     \new Voice { \Music }||
||     \new Voice { \Dynamics }||
||   >>||
||||
||  \layout {}||
||  \midi {}||
||}|

It produces a nice score and also the MIDI reflects the dynamics. But, if I name one of the Voices, which I need to for Lyrics, the score is still fine, but in the MIDI file nothing of dynamics can be heard. Just one level all the time.

|\version "2.18.2"||
||||
||Music = {||
||  a'4 a' a' a'||
||  a'4 a' a' a'||
||}||
||||
||Dynamics = { ||
||   s4\ppp s s s||
||   s4\fff s s s||
||}||
||||
||\score {||
||  \new Staff <<||
||    \new Voice = "SA" { \Music }||  % <-- named voice
||    \new Voice { \Dynamics }||
||  >>||
||||
||   \layout {}||
||   \midi {}||
||}||
|||

As you see the above examples are written for version 2.18.2, the latest stable, but I have tested also in version 2.19.42 without any difference.
