Additional context

Hello,
I came across a chord symbol issue. Having made a guitar jazz template document, I noticed that when setting standard style for chord symbols with default musejazz text font, the musescore does not read accidentals and other chord sighs like diminished or half diminished. The accidentals and sighs are visible, however in another (non-jazz) font.
