### Bug Summary

This might be a duplicate, but I checked and couldn't find a relevant issue.

VSTs play random notes after an arbitrary amount of time while playing a MIDI clip in the Piano Roll. Currently, as I write this, I'm noticing the issue with the [DecentSampler plugin](https://www.decentsamples.com/product/decent-sampler-plugin/). Not sure if it occurs anywhere else, but I remember there was [this plugin](https://www.nilsschneider.de/wp/nils-k1v/) where it happened too.

### Expected Behaviour

Notes in MIDI clip play as expected without other random notes getting in the way.

### Steps To Reproduce

1. Load a VST
2. Add notes to the clip
3. Let it play in the Piano Roll for some amount of time, random notes may start playing at varying lengths
