Diminuendo not abiding preceding dynamic of different staff in part
Whenever I put a diminuendo below a note and press playback, and when I get to that part, the note is suddenly really quiet even though the dynamics are not that quiet. So far, its happened to every diminuendo I put on one of my scores, and it doesn't go away even if I delete the diminuendo or if I change the dynamics.

From the OPs attached score. See the dim line in m32. It should fade from pp (m25) to ppp (m43) but immediately switches to ppp right at the start of the line.
The dynamics and the dim both have their range set to be the part, not the staff.
Workaround: attach the pp from m25 to the treble staff instead of the bass staff and all plays as expected.
In the score, I noticed a sudden drop in volume as soon as it gets to the diminuendos which is not really what you expect. Removing them left a steady volume for me. The volume on this is already soft, so any more softer will affect the volume more than if you even had the volume at mp rather than pp.
Assuming that change was not inteded
OOPS! I didn't intend to change it.
Also applies with decrescendos.
