DC al Coda doesn't work if the "To Coda" sign is under a volta
Wndows 7/10. MS 2.2.1, 51b8386
Open and play the attached example score. The "D.C. al Coda" sign is ignored if the "To Coda" sign is under a volta. Delete the volta and playback is restored.

After a Jump one is supposed to take the "last" playthrough of a piece. In your case, MuseScore tries to evaluate the D.C., but can't find the 'To Coda' as it is indeed hidden by the first volta (and therefor not part of the last playthrough of the piece). By not finding that marker, the jump is considered invalid.
In your case, you can get the playback you want by simply checking the "Play repeats" option on the jump:
1. Select the D.C. al Coda
2. Open up the inspector if it isn't already (F8)
3. Check "Play repeats" in the Jump Properties section
