Crescendo and Diminuendo Hairpins not responding to certain stresses. (4.4)

Two instances of these features not working as they did prior to 4.4:

I had wrote a song that makes use of a crescendo into a Fp to make a rolling type effect that worked really well in a pre-4.4 version of musescore 4, but when upgrading to 4.4, crescendos seem to not handle that well and it sounds more like accents.

The other instance, I had used a Diminuendo on a harpsichord part that was using an MS basic synth sound in the mixer, and pre-4.4 it would fade to the PP. Now, it does not, remaining the same audio level until after the note is released before recognizing the new dynamic.
