Assigned SFZ files do not play
I have installed the VPO sfz files into the soundfonts folder and I am able to see the list of instruments in the Zerberus synth and load the sounds. I am also able to assign the files to each track using the Mixer. However, the sounds do not play. There are no error messages to indicate any problems. What am I doing wrong? (see attached screenshots)

Sorry. Using Musescore 3.6.2 on a MacOS 10.15.6.
My best guess is you installed the SFZ files but not the actual audio files that go with them.

Indeed, You have to download the wave files and one of the sfz scripts. Then unzip and combine them to one folder. Then copy that into MuseScore.

As this is the first time that I have used sfz files, I'm finding the instructions for Musescore to be incomplete. It was only by spending a lot of time reading through all of the other posts from users asking how to use sfz files that did not include an answer, was I able to piece together most of the steps. I would like to submit the steps I had to use so they can be included in an updated set of instructions/tutorials on how to properly install and use these types of files?

Well, the instructions on the download site worked for me.
