Playing Musescore messes up my audio!!!!
Sometime when I play a score my right channel has VERY LOUD static. Even If i restart the program it still persists. In addition, any other audio outputs from my computer have the same static - Spotify, Youtube, hell even when windows pop ups open that little dang beep is static in my right ear.
I can only fix it by restarting my whole computer. I can't find anyone with this same problem.

Try opening Synthesizer, turn the volume down slightly and save as default.

I'm having the same issue. It never happens while I've been using MuseScore for a while, the issue always happen as soon as the program starts (although not every time) and it messes audio for everything. I also can only fix it by rebooting.
Reverting to factory settings did not help, nor did uninstalling MuseScore, but even before I did so, I had close to none tweaked settings, it's a very recent installation.
I've never seen any issue like this with any other programs.

Probably there is some conflict with some other audio software or device driver on your system. Try different settings in Edit / Preferences / I/O (every system has different options so I can't guess which specifically to try on yours). If no success, go back to whatever the default is, then try shutting down and/or uninstalling other audio programs until you find where the conflict is.

I don't really have any other audio software running, I can tell this safely because of the rebooting, I was sure nothing else was running.
I also managed to pinpoint the issue a little further: it always happens on the second time MuseScore is ran since boot, i. e. for this to happen I must boot, run MuseScore, use it as needed, close it, wait for the process to actually terminate and it doesn't matter if I run it again immediately or after an hour, as soon as I run it again the issue will happen.
Concerning I/O, I'm on Windows 10, but here is a screenshot of my settings (sorry it's in Portuguese):

Even after a boot, other software may be running - some may have set itself up to autorun. Ypu'd need to check in Task Manager. But anyhow, as I said, every system is different, so none of us can know what might work best on your system. Just try other options both of those two dropdowns.

Ok, I just read about MME, WASAPI and Windows Directo Sound here and chose WASAPI.
It seems the issue is solved now, thank you!
It stopped working for me once I installed FL Studio. I installed a new audio driver, so that might be the problem, but I don't know how to fix it.
