Multiple MuseScore 4 Icons in Dock Mac OS 13 Ventura
I have noticed a slight problem with MuseScore 4 on my Macbook running OS 13 Ventura:
when loading a score another MuseScore icon will appear in the dock even though there was a MuseScore icon already. At one point there were three identical icons in the dock. This never happened with MuseScore 3.

This is a known limitation of macOS. It's correct that MuseScore now puts scores in separate instances to allow them to have separate sound profiles etc, but the OS is supposed to handle this and show them all in a single icon, and for whatever reason macOS does not. Workarounds for this are being investigated.

It would be great if you found a sollution. I see this as a very uncomfortable side of this in other respects really great notation software. Good luck with solving this problem!
