Hide empty staves seems to now consider a staff empty if the first measure on a system is empty, even other measures have notes. Try turning that option on for the attached file. You'll see staves disappearing that should not.

This issue seems to be caused by Werners commit here: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/commit/9c8ca0fdb488074313fa2112b…
Now only the first measure of every system has been appended to the measureBase list. So checks are only made on first measure of a staff.
I can't figure out an easy solution for this problem. It makes most sense to revert the changes and check after a system is collected as before. One can only be sure if a staff should be hidden after the system is complete.
I don't suppose there is any chance of this being fixed for beta? I guess I should have marked it P0, S2 to begin with, it's really a showstopper.
Changed the name so it makes more sense.
No doubt my original title wasn't good, but I think it needed further improvement
I tried to reimplement the fix for the previous issue avoiding this one, see https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/4289.
Fixed in branch master, commit e65488af67
fix #278057, fix #277666: hide empty staves reusing space for instrument names
The previous fix 9c8ca0fdb488074313fa2112b02ee37edd05497c
caused a side-effect of hiding non-empty staves if their first
measure was empty.
Fixed in branch master, commit b01748583d
