This seems to be a small problem to you, but ...

... it does not occur as rarely as you might think. Bear
in mind: The ALSA developrs asked for a "good" example. Thus,
I offer a 2-staff example because I euqate "good" and "simple".(?)
The situation dramatically changes if you play a whole
orchestra.  I supply about 10 examples with my musical
score editor NoteEdit

(http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html)

It is practiaclly impossible to play these examples without
dropping notes. Especially if the drum or percussion fails
this is very angry. It happens also if I use the FluidR3
font. And - to make this clear - independend of whether
I play with NoteEdit or the exported MIDI files with
any arbitary MIDI player and/or sequencer or whatever
you have in mind, as long as these MIDI player/sequencer
uses the hardware wavetable synthesis.

And more important: It never occurs with AWE64 independend
of the soundfond and/or the MIDI player and/or sequencer.
