Notes do not sound during note input
MS 3.6.2 on Mac Mini Late 2014 10.12.6 Sierra. This is a new install.
When I open an existing file I cannot get notes to sound on Note Entry using MIDI keyboard or mouse. Also, when I click on a note in the score, it does not sound. In Preferences, MIDI input is checked; and Play notes on entry is checked.
If I open a new score, notes Do sound on entry using mouse and MIDI keyboard. Save that file and re-open, and all works fine.
I have reset to factory settings. The MIDI keyboard, and audio device shows correctly in Preferences I/O. Several restarts of MS and CPU.
The existing files (many) were created on a PC. Tried saving in both compressed and uncompressed on the MAC. No change to the issue.
No sound on Note Entry in any of my existing files.

I'm not convinced this would solve your issue entirely but note that your Narrator/Voice and Baritone don't have "expr" sounds assigned to them while those instruments are SND-capable.
Sometimes this can lead to the behavior you describing (having to click notes before playback works for example).
Also check Synthesizer > Dynamics whether the CC to use is still at 2 (default) or not.

Thanks. I'll try these suggestions. I notice today that I'm getting double-strike piano notes....
It appears that my audio device (NI Audio 6) must be shown an MIDI Input and Output. Then I get notes sounding on note input; and I don't get the double-strike.
