I doubt there is any one answer to that - every system is different in how the MIDI and audio are routed. But also, it should be noted, MuseScore just wasn't designed for real-time performance. So, you will soon find it isn't so viable for this - even without the latency, not all of the incoming MIDI data is reproduced by the synthesizer. So you're really better off using a different sound source if the goal is to actually play music.

Need? No. But between the latency and the other limitations that come from MuseScore not having been designed for this, you may find that using a different sound source is simply better. I think many people who use MIDI keyboards simply use the built-in sounds, but of course not all keyboards have those.
