### Bug Summary
Hi, I can assign a midi controller knob to preset next and previous but it does not work. When I press the key, I do see the preset selection button is highlichted/selected but it does not change to next or previous preset.

### Expected Behaviour
Every time I press an assigned knob, the next or previous preset should be selected.
### Steps To Reproduce
Richtclick preset selection knop forward or backwards. Connect to controller. Midi controller. Click on the hardware knob and it;s controller code will be assigned.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in LMMS 1.3.0-alpha.1.743 using an assigned MIDI controller on the preset forward and backward controls. Start by tracing the MIDI controller handling for preset selection and compare the highlighted-button behavior with actual preset changes. Done means both assigned controls select the next or previous preset reliably, with a regression test if the existing test structure supports it.
