Just open any file and it just plays a stuttery horrible mess of sound.

Really in 4.x-dev, i.e a pre-alpha development build?
Which exactly, on what operating system?

I have also found this issue (audio very choppy) in following cases:
1) Newly created score, single instrument with Native Instruments Massive X as plugin chosen for this instrument through mixer.
2) Opened another user's Musescore 2 file, which I believe used the orchestral Musescore soundfonts. This had over 10 instruments and was very choppy.

However audio seemed to be fine in cases:
1) New score, using Surge XT vst plugin.
2) New score, using Massive X (so apparently it was choppy once and now fine?)
3) Opening a saved score with Surge XT plugins, and switching one to Massive X.

So unfortunately doesn't seem to be consistent on my end yet, but thought I'd share more info.
I'm running Musescore 4.0.0 on Win 10 21H2
