Issue type

Import/export issue

Bug description

Exporting a multipart score with alternative volta repeats, the alternative markings are only placed in the first part. The measures are there but are not marked as alternatives.
Some meta information of the score is not placed in the MXL file (e.g. subtilte text).

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create a new multipart score
  2. Create some volta repeats
  3. Export to MXL

Research direction

Reproduce the multipart score and volta-repeat export described in the issue, then inspect the MusicXML/MXL export path. Compare the exported parts and metadata with the source score; done means alternative markings appear in every relevant part and subtitle text is present in the MXL file.
