[MU4 Issue] In imported MS3 scores, playback of chord symbols is heard even if NOT specified in Style properties
Describe the bug
In the attached MS file, chord symbol playback was turned OFF in the MS3 style settings, but is turned ON again when imported into MS4.
To Reproduce
Open and play back the attached MS3 file. cream_in_my_coffee.zip
RESULT: Although playback is unticked in Format > Style > Chord symbols, playback is clearly heard in the score.
Expected behavior
Chord symbol playback settings should always be respected.
Platform information OS: Linux Mint 20.1, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore version (64-bit): 4.0.0-2829968415, revision: github-musescore-musescore-2d21253
Not just for imported scores, and not just in the Style settings. Even in scores created within MU4, chords always play, even if you turn off playback in the style settings, even if you turn off playback of individual chord symbols in the Properties panel, even if you try to mute the chord symbols channel in the mixer (the button never engages). Only thing you can too is turn the volume down to minimum.
@vpereverzev The root issue here Play option in Style settings doesn't work to mute chords.
As I see, the Play option in Style settings in the attached score is unchecked so it should work after the main issue is fixed. But the initial scenario when porting MU3 score with unchecked Play option also should be rechecked after fix.
@rgreen5 Thanks for logging!

Play option in Style settings is removed by design. Now user can mute chords in Mixer (and save that state for score).
Unfortunately now the muted state for chords in MS3 scores can't be imported to MU4 (so that part of the bug is not fixed)
(@Tantacrul please indicate if disagree with the last point and it requires a new task)
This was the compromise we had to arrive at, so this is the desired behaviour for MS4.0.
