FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0-beta"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0-beta-b32c, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
The MIDI sequence that is failing to save was recorded from external MIDI port connected to a Yamaha digital piano.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
After recording a MIDI sequence from an external MIDI device, attempts to save the sequence either hang or result in the following exception.

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at java.io.SequenceInputStream.nextStream(SequenceInputStream.java:95)
        at java.io.SequenceInputStream.read(SequenceInputStream.java:175)
        at java.io.InputStream.read(InputStream.java:89)
        at com.sun.media.sound.StandardMidiFileWriter.write(StandardMidiFileWriter.java:130)
        at javax.sound.midi.MidiSystem.write(MidiSystem.java:992)
        at toolkit.sound.midi.MidiDeviceConnector$1.meta(MidiDeviceConnector.java:774)
        at com.sun.media.sound.EventDispatcher.processEvent(EventDispatcher.java:108)
        at com.sun.media.sound.EventDispatcher.dispatchEvents(EventDispatcher.java:174)
        at com.sun.media.sound.EventDispatcher.run(EventDispatcher.java:200)
        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:566)



STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Connect the external MIDI device to the sequencer.
2. Prepare a new sequence for recording.
3. Record to the new sequence for a few seconds.
4. Save the sequence to a file.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I was expecting the sequence to be written to the specified file, however the method either hangs or throws an exception after 14 bytes were written to the specified file.
ACTUAL -
Listening...Done.
