Description
Describe the bug
On a grand staff it is possible to extend an arpeggio from treble staff to bass staff by selecting the bottom edit handle and pressing Shift+down arrow. However this does not update playback, which still applies only to the chord voice to which it was originally applied in the treble staff.
Similarly, AFAICS, there is no way to extend an arpeggio and update its playback across different voices in the same staff. e.g.

In this case arpeggio playback only ever applies to voice 1.
AFAICS, arpeggio playback only works correctly for one voice in one staff.
Expected behavior
There should be a way to extend an arpeggio between voices in the same staff and between staves, AND update the playback to encompass all the notes in the new range.
