Bug description

When the option for showing braille is enabled in the preferences and a score is either created or opened, no braille music is shown on my braille display when navigating over to the braille pannel. Only "Braille readonly" is shown.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Open or create a score.
  2. Make sure braille is enabled in the preferences.
  3. Tab until the braille pannel is focused.

Expected results: braille music should be shown on the braille display and the musician should be able to read it if wanted or needed.

Actual results: no braille music is shown on the braile terminal.
