Can I ask a dumb question? Are you just trying to play the music you just entered in LilyPond? Have you tried double-clicking on the .mid file from a File Explorer window? Often the default MIDI player will execute. Or, in Frescobaldi, there is a MIDI Player window which you can open via the Tools menu. You may also have to configure MIDI via the Edit -> Preferences -> MIDI Settings window.
