Different playback volume of instruments when comparing mscz and MusicXML
1. Open attached mscz (produced in 1.3).
2. 'File'>'Export…'.
3. Choose 'MusicXML'.
4. 'Save'.
5. Open MusicXML.
6. Play each file and compare sound output.
Result: The Electric Bass sounds louder than Keyboard 2 in the mscz, whilst it is the opposite in the MusicXML.
7. Adjust the volume of Keyboard 2 in the MusicXML slightly.
Result: The volume dramatically decreases.
Notes:
Also attached is the produced MusicXML.
The volume settings in Mixer are the same between files.
Discussion: I don't know if it's a MusicXML-specific issue, as I've seen this effect elsewhere. If someone knows why, could they post in the issue tracker?

Does not reproduce for me, i.e. I cannot really hear much difference between the two versions.
The MusicXML does not affect the mixer settings at all. Please note that the instrument articulations are not saved in MusicXML, so any tweaks there get lost.
