Meanwhile I found the same happens with FluidR3 soundfont. And
this soundfont is freely available.

Please have at look at the end of

http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/DROP/gap.html

There you find the sound of 2 tied whole
notes created by the hardware synthesis, TiMidity,
and FluidSynth on basis of FluidR3 soundfont. Again:
FluidSynth creates "attacking" (and very silent) strings.

I also added the MIDI file. Do you really get different results
with FluidR3 soundfont and FluidSynth ?
