And you're not doing anything funky, like using threads, being busy in
a tight loop, running a modal loop, keeping a menu open, keeping the
mouse button pressed in a tab view, or other control, et.c.? This is
just something that you set up in response to a simple button action
(or similar), and when the timer is supposed to fire, the application
is completely idle?
My advice to you: Try to recreate your problem in a small sample app.
If you can't, then you know that the problem is in your sources. If you
can, post an URL to the sample app to the list to allow us to see
what's going on.

What type of application is this? If it's not a "standard Cocoa
application",
It is pure Cocoa / Objective-C.
Just one additional MIDI-framework.
NSDocument structure, has windows, controllers and everything else...
are you sure that the run loop is running, and that you're running in
the default run loop mode?
Well, actually I'm not sure, but I thought it's like this:
1. I add the timer to [NSRunLoop currentRunLoop],
2. then I release the timer, because the manual tells me it is
retained by adding to the runLoop
3. _then_ I call [timer isValid] =>
if the runLoop would _not_ have added the timer, it wouldn't be there
anymore, because the timer had never been retained,
isn't that the case?
Moreover: the timer gets fired, when I explicitly call [timer fire].
But it does never fire by itself ???
