Steve is correct.  When a track is set to "both", program changes on
the track will only be sent internally.  This is because, in a standard
MIDI file, there's no notion of "port" so you couldn't have one PC for
the internal synth and one PC for the external device.  Since you can't
have separate ones, and it wouldn't be useful to send the *same*
program change internally as externally, we only send internal.

What you *can* do, however, is set up an "ext" "MultiA" (or B) track
and place *all* your external program changes on it.  This is also why
"both" tracks don't send externally, because otherwise, you wouldn't be
able to use this workaround.
