Engraving bug

Bug description

The default placement of p dynamic marking is off-center with whole notes and downstem quarter notes. I did not investigate any other combination of dynamic markings and notes. Please check the screenshot, the top stave is the MuseScore 4 default, the next stave down are my corrections with a left -0.7 offset (my opinion, for reference).

Steps to reproduce
  1. Enter a whole note
  2. apply p dynamic marking
  3. Enter a downstem quarter note
  4. apply a p dynamic marking
