When playing back voice parts in swing, in one particular measure, whose rhythm repeats several times in the piece, Musescore 4 plays rests instead of an eighth note. The pattern is the same for all occurrences of this rhythm. In a four-beat measure, the rhythm consists of three eighth notes with a fourth tied to a quarter note and then two eighth notes on beat 4. The eighth note on beat 4 plays back as a rest. This occurs for all parts. I noticed this only for one rhythm, i.e., one measure that repeats at several places.

I generated my Musescore file by uploading a PDF and fixing the resulting Musescore file to match the score, so it is not notes input from scratch. I tried inserting a new measure and duplicating the rhythm using single note input, but the result was the same.

In the attached Musescore file, the first occurrence in in measure 9.
