1. Open this file.

Result: A lyric appears under a rest in the first bar.

Discussion: I remembered this comment about MuseScore not allowing lyrics under rests. I propose that it imports as stave text.

Using MuseScore 2.0 Nightly Build (e10f6b5) - Mac 0.7.5.

The file linked to above is not available (anymore, seems the entire website is gone). The downside of not attaching files here directly...

With MuseScore 3 lyrics are allowed with rests, but without a sample file we can't test whether this actually solves this KAR import issue

As I recall, even before we started the entry of lyrics on rests, we already supported them in import from formats that supported them, so if that file had a lyric on a rest, this was "by design" even in 2013.

At the time, I didn't want to attach files directly for legal reasons. However, I think it's a different scenario now (I'm assuming publishing rights to this site have been agreed for this song).

I think I found it on my system - just for future reference.
