When i go to a specific part to playback a section it takes me back to where i was playing the rest of the score.

So say that I'm in the main score and stop in measure 2, then I go to piano 2 part and select measure 4 to playback, but I'm taken back to measure 2.

Confirmed. Doesn't seem to be any obvious workaround short of going back to the score and selecting the start location there. Similarly, setting the loop playback gets the start point wrong.

I take that back, this is way more complicated than I expected, yet again. This happens because the channel of the instrument is -1, because it hasn't been changed after the part was initialized. I have no idea how to fix this, however. This is at mscore/musescore.cpp:4291.

I suspect this related to the fact that parts no longer have their own sound per se, they rely on the master score for just about everything. That allows us to play the full score while viewing the part but comes at quite a cost right now.

Quick fix for this particular aspect of the issue might be to force-select the linked element in the score when starting playback in a part?
