Description
Describe the bug
Nashville Numbers render correctly with chords_std.xml, but when switching to chords_jazz.xml, the font size of chord modifiers (slash, sus, minor, etc.) is extremely small.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create new file
- Enter Nashville Numbers with modifiers such as minor, sus or slash (Add -> Text -> Nashville Number)
- Change Style to Jazz (Format -> Style -> Chord Symbols -> Jazz)
- See error
Expected behavior
Chord modifiers should be sized according to the Chord, same as when using the default chord style in chords_std.xml

Behaviour with chords_std.xml:

Behaviour with chords_jazz.xml:

Platform information
- OS: Windows 11 22623.1037
- Musescore version output:
OS: Windows 10 Version 2009, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 4.0.1-230121751, revision: github-musescore-musescore-9b70a8c
Additional context
I suspect this is a problem with chords_std.xml, since chords_std.xml works just fine, but I can't work out where the file sets the size of the chord modifiers.
