My score won't playback if MuseScore was on when my computer went to sleep.

If my computer goes to sleep while I have MuseScore open, when I come back to it, it won't play back my music. I have to close the program and re-open it. Not a big deal mostly, but inconvenient, so if there's something else I can do, please let me know. Thanks.
Using MuseScore 3.2

Updating to the current version 3.3.4 might help, although I don;t know that it will. But it will certain fix many other bugs, so you might as well.

What OS are you on? My guess is some audio device driver is not properly reinitializing on wake.

Same for me for all versions of MuseScore (2 and 3...) on Windows 10.
Switching sound effect in Windows settings (spatial off/on) is by-pass avoiding to restart MuseScore.
And MuseScore is the only application with that behaviour. All other apps sound is not impacted. A Qt issue perhaps ?

When the computer wakes up from sleep, some software cannot reassign the required drivers.
It may be necessary to restart the software or use the "Restart Audio and MIDI devices" button.
