I downloaded 3 yesterday. All of a sudden the playbutton does not give sound. So this morning I deleted and installed again. Problem gone in test song. Back to work: problem pops up again. Deleted programm. Reintalled again. Problem gone - after 15 minutes without chainging anything - problem is back. HELP!!!!

What Operating System (here: which version of Windows, I gathered that much from the score), what sondfont does Synthesizer list, what does Edit > Preferences > I/O look like (screenshot)
Thanks for reacting so fast!!
Windows 10 64 bit. I just did the installation again - with the dame result. At first everything is oke. And then it happens. Can't find anything unusual in the Synthesizer list, Edit > Preferences > I/O look like
Does that "Herstart" button work to restore sound?
Is any other application on that computer maybe stealing it from MuseScore

No restart does not help. And no - nothing is stealing it for I carefully stayed away from the computer to be sure I could not accidentally interfere :)
Still no idea what might cause this, so still would need information, but have no idea what to ask for :-/

It really sound like there is some other hardware (or possibly software) taking control of the sound.
Some motherboards assume that when the incoming audio voltage is too high, they can mute the sound to protect the output circuits. (for example: G1g4bayte Motherboards).
Reducing the main volume of Musescore can be a solution. (A value of about -50 or lower can help)
View menu => Synthesizer => Reduce the volume (on the right side) and click the "Set to Default" button.
You can also use the Direct-Sound output driver instead of MME. (Edit Menu => Preferences => I / O Tab) eg:API: "Win. Direct Sound" Device: "Speakers-HD Audio".
Can you test and verify if the problem has been resolved or not?
