You should use two score blocks. This allows you also to unfold the 
repeats:

\version "2.18.2"

\include "articulate.ly"

music = \relative {
 \repeat volta 2 {
   a\staccato b\staccato c d
 }
}

\score {
 \music
 \layout {}
}

\score {
 \unfoldRepeats \articulate \music
 \midi {}
}

This is documented here:

Maybe the section on articulate may recommend using two score blocks, 
as in repeats.
