  1. Start playing from measure 331 (Allegro assai vivace). Note how choir and piano are playing even though they shouldn't.
  2. Start playing from measure 330. Note how tremolo plays too slowly (fermata shouldn't affect tremolo speed).

I ran into this issue as well, and it also involved a tremolo. After the fermata ends, the tremolo continues for another half-measure or so, playing over the next bar. I'm not 100% sure what order I did these things in, but I've attached a minimal MuseScore file that reproduces the issue for me.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a MuseScore file with a piano (2 staves)
  2. In the top staff, add a 5-beat note to the first measure (continues into the second)
  3. In the bottom staff, add a whole note to the second measure
  4. Add tremolo (32nd through stem) to the note in the bottom staff
  5. Add fermata to the note in the bottom staff
  6. Add some stuff to the 3rd measure (just to verify that the 3rd measure is also played during the tremolo)
  7. Turn on metronome
  8. Hit play. Notice that the tremolo continues over the 3rd measure
