Rather than trilling to the note above, when a "prall" is applied to a note with an accidental on it, the same note is simply repeated (like a shortened "8th note tremolo"). The same issue is seen with playback of the "mordent" notation.

This issue only applies to notes with accidentals written in on the staff. Accidentals from the key signature don't cause this issue.

I can reproduce this:

1) empty score, C major
2) enter C# into an measure
3) add mordent
4) play

Result: C#-C#-C#. Should be C#-D-C# I guess. Same result, BTW, if you enter Db instead of C#.

Looks like a "brute force" solution to the problem of finding the appropriate pitch to use. After working my through it, I see the problem and will submit a fix soon (along with some comments!)
