 This happened to me on {{{ghci playmidi.hs}}} from the {{{examples/}}}
 folder of {{{http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hmidi-0.2.1.0}}}
 (downloaded the tar and fixed the parsec import, removing the
 {{{"parsec2"}}} package import and fixing a type checking error, replacing
 {{{selectOutputDevice Nothing}}} by {{{selectOutputDevice "Select midi
 output device" Nothing}}}.

 (We also fixed those compile errors at
 https://github.com/vahokif/hmidi/tree/2124a8.)

 I have not been able to reproduce it since the first time :(
