Description

Describe the bug
MuseScore4 disables the playback from midi keys during playback. This is a regression from MuseScore 3.

I like to generate musical ideas by playing with my MIDI keyboard while the score is playing. In MS3, I was able to do this by selecting the staff with the part I wanted and pressing keys while the score played. This behavior seems to be disabled in MS4.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Create a new score with at least one part.
Click on a measure in the first staff.
Play keys on your MIDI keyboard. You will hear them echoed.
Press play to engage playback.
Play keys on your MIDI keyboard again. No sound will be produced.

Expected behavior
MIDI notes should sound in the voice of the currently selected part.

Platform information
Windows 10
