​Okay. SOLVED!

And I'm printing this for future reference!!!

While a midi file is being played by timidity: in the Pulse Audio Volume
Control (pavucontrol) go to the playback tab, select Show: AllStreams. The
timidity app shows as using the internal speaker. Just select the USB
device from the menu of devices.

Dead simple.... once you know.

Thanks all.
