MuseScore currently bases the transposition of a score on the Key Signature of the first stave. If the first stave is assigned to an unpitched instrument (typically percussion) the key of C major is assumed regardless of the key of the other instruments.

To be clear; the only thng that goes wrong is the detection of the original key, which throws off that one operation. Transposition by interval works fine, and the transposition works normally aside from getting the interval wrong in that one case - no corruption, no crash, it's undoable,.etc.

But certainly worth fixing, even if not critical.
