This happens when I export my score to a midi file and then, right after, I export it to pdf.
1. File - Export - Save as type: (use mouse to choose) "Standard MIDI file..." results in a midi file being saved.
2. File - Export - Save as type: (window defaults to this option) "PDF File..." results in a midi file being saved.

If during step 2. I open the drop down and choose any other Save as type, and then choose PDF File, the problem goes away.

This happens with all scores I've made.

Difference (and possible culprit): for MIDI it shows 2 possible extensions, .mid and .midi. This is OK for Import (and there additionaly allows for .kar), but probably not for export.

Fix version
3.6.0
