Chord Symbol Playback not respecting score defaults
I am working on a transcription/arrangement for a song and added chord symbols to my score. I turned off playback for chords on that score but they still play when listening back to the score.

How exactly did you turn playback for chords off?
There are various methods.

I have done all of these methods and none of them have worked
That score doesn't have playback for chord symbols disabled.
The method described in https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/playback-chord-symbols-nashville-nu… switches it of for you and you only.
If you want it switched of for a certain score (and for everybody else opening it) use https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/playback-chord-symbols-nashville-nu…

That's the issue, that is the case for the score I attached. Video below starts just after I select that score upon startup

Indeed, to be clear: you may have turned off chord symbol playback for some other score, but not the one you attached originally.
If your goal is to turn off playback for all new scores you create, go to Edit / Preferences / Advanced and turn on "score/harmony/play/disableNew".

Are you talking about chords playing back on the score, or on the part?

The part, sorry. I was thinking of each part in the score as part of the score itself. What do I need to do in order to do what you did for your attached file?

Use Format -> Style .> Chord Symbols and uncheck the 'Play' box.
Do it for the whole score. Do it for the part.
This may be a better way for parts....

this uses the Mixer to mute the chord playback.

To be clear: if you do it for the score before generating the part, that setting should be inherited. But after that, they - like all style settings - are independent. So if you wish to change it for a part after the fact, do it there indeed. If you then wish to apply that - or any - style setting to all other parts, hit the "Apply to all Parts" button. EDIT: however, I forgot - while style settings are independent for score and parts, for playback specifically, the score's settings always take precedence. Not sure why it's that way, but it seems to be the case.
