Do the manual beaming on the *second* triplet; the error comes from trying
to beam a quarter note (which has no beam).  By putting the manual beaming
on the second triplet, you'll force the break after the end of the first
one.

See the changed line below.

P.S. This behavior should happen automatically with the new autobeaming code
to be in 2.13.26.
