How to adjust default velocity (volume) of voices 3 and 4 to match voices 1 and 2?

I've read some stuff that is quite old on this topic, but nothing that addresses MuseScore Studio 4, as far as I can tell.

I arrange for classical guitar, which uses at least Voice 1 (treble/melody/RH fingers) and Voice 2 (bass/RH thumb). Both of those voices reach -12 dB on the mixer when I click a note.

However, one often uses Voice 3 and Voice 4 for notes that differ in duration from Voice 1 or 2. Both of THOSE voices reach -3 dB on the mixer when I click a note! That's a helluva lot louder!

I've never altered anything with the playback volume. This is 100% default playback settings. I cannot find a way to decrease the playback volume of Voice 3 and Voice 4.

It's not the end of the world, and song playback sounds good. It seems to be mainly when I click on notes during editing. It's rather jarring when you add a Voice 3 note and get your ears blasted!

This is on Ubuntu Linux:

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore Studio version (64-bit): 4.3.2-241630832, revision: 22b46f2
