Comment (by ZvikaZ):

 Strange. For me it's working...
 Are you sure that it's indeed going through your external munt?
 Can you post your scummvm.ini?
 (it should be in something like C:\Users\your-user-
 name\AppData\Roaming\ScummVM\scummvm.ini)

 BTW,
 Let me elaborate why is it the required configuration:

 MT-32 predates General Midi standard, and therefore, not complaint with
 it.
 That's why ScummVM behaves differently when sending data to MT-32 device,
 or to GM device.

 When you're using your external MUNT, it appears with `[Windows MIDI]` -
 exactly like the regular 'MS GS Synth' (which is a GM device).
 ScummVM only knows that it's sending to [Windows MIDI], it has no way to
 know what standard the device behind the [Windows MIDI] port is
 supporting.
 Therefore, if you're connecting an MT-32 to a MIDI port - you have to
 select "True Roland MT-32".

 When you're using the internal builtin Munt, this option is selected
 implicitly, without requiring the user the explicitly set it, because -
 well, we know that it's an MT-32.
