I have no idea how to recreate this bug
For the past year I've struggled with the playback option suddenly crashing
I can usually fix the issue by reverting the program back to factory settings, but I did that twice now and that fix doesn't seem to help anymore

Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to investigate without a copy of the score you are working on and steps to reproduce the crash. So if you do figure out how to recreate the problem, be sure to follow up here and provide that info.

I have the same problem unfortunately. On a typical day where I use musescore (a few hours in a row) it will typically happen once or twice. It's not easy to reproduce reliably - seems to happen randomly (if I had to guess I'd say that something is not properly initialized). When it happens, for me, playback will first "stutter" on a single note (typically while sounding obscenely loud) and then segfault after a few seconds. Does musescore provide debug builds by any chance so I maybe I could dump a stacktrace next time it happens?
