Weird problem/bug with D.S.
Not sure why, but playback not following simple D.S. Keeps playing right past it. Not a D.S. al Coda, but rather a simple D.S. The problem being it won't jump back to the segno. I am jumping over Volta, but it's not like I have D.S. or Segno inside the Volta. Both are on the outside. I uploaded the file below if someone wants to check it out and see what the problem is. I also tried using a simple D.C. instead but once again it didn't jump back to the beginning but just kept moving forward in the score.

Score stems from MuseScore 3.3.4 -> Update to 3.6.2! (wether or not that solvels the issue at hand)

Then add an end repeat barline to measure 9 (where the "2., 4." volta ends)
Then note that Jumps by default don't take repeats, if you want that check the jump's "Play repeats" in their Inspector

For me it seems the "2., 4." volta ends at D,S,
Then there should be the repeat barline without D.S. and the repeat count of the first repeat barline should be 4 (not 3).

But you do.
The 2,4 volta is open ended, which means it extends until there's a reason for it to not (like another volta or an end repeat). Since you have no such things in your score, that volta applies all the way to the end of the score.
So the D.S. is covered by the volta. And a jump is only taken on the last normal repeat, which for that volta is defined as the 4th repeat. You only go into it the on 2nd repeat (in which the Jump should be ignored) and then have no more repeat barlines, so playback stops.
possible solutions
Remove the D.S. and the Segno and place an end repeat barline at m27.
Also add a system text there to indicate the repeat should be only taken the first time you're there (so only on pass 2)
Keep the D.S.
Adjust the first volta to be just "1." and the 2nd volta to be just "2."
Turn on "play repeats" for the D.S.
Adjust the play count for m8 back to 2 now that this is a simple volta

Ahh makes sense. Thanks for the help.
