Non-standard drumkit sounds pitched upon change of soundfont
- Open attached score (produced in 2.2.1).
- 'View'>'Synthesiser'.
- Add another soundfont (e.g. 'Arachno Soundfont - Version 1.0').
- 'Play'.
Result: The sound is piano (listen to attached audio).
Workarounds: Re-select sound in Mixer; Untick and tick drumset.
Notes:
Reproducible in new score.
Perhaps depending on the score, the sound may not always be piano.
Using MuseScore 2.2.1, 2.3 RC 16bd6b6 and 3.0 Nightly bbecf3c - Mac 10.11.6.

I think this has existed for a long time.
It's a problem in the mobile app, for example.
Confirmed (I used a different soundfont because I couldn't find Arachno). The key is that this score uses a non-default drumkit (not Standard). Somehow we are recognizing the fact that the score uses a non-default drumkit even after the change in soundfont, and if you go to View / Mixer you see something selected, but it isn't being set up properly at first.
Also see this.
I think this should be fixed in 2.3.2 while we have the opportunity. Please see the link in the above post for more details.
