I was able to reproduce this issue with the attached score. Looking at the score's xml, several of the empty measures have the attribute len="96/4", with a rest of the same duration. The invalid durations all occur in measures that define the starts of multimeasure rests.
This issue appears to be related to multimeasure rests in the SATB parts. Deleting those instruments resolves the issue.

While this does seem to resolve the issue, the issue steadily reappears after creating a brand new part and showing the instruments "Soprano", "Alto", "Tenor", and "Bass" inside the part score. Does that mean that MuseScore 4 can't generate multi-measure rests properly?
