Have a look at the logfile.
~/.local/share/MuseScore/MuseScore4/logs
You probably will see something like:
21:50:40.640 | ERROR | main_thread | MuseSamplerLibHandler | MuseSamplerLibHandler:
Unable to open MuseSampler library, path:
/home/XXX/.local/share/MuseSampler/lib/libMuseSamplerCoreLib.so
(or /usr/lib/libMuseSamplerCoreLib.so )
Search for the library and copy it to the correct location.

Thx @graffesmusic. Logfile (edited) contains:
2023-11-29T08:50:19.467 | ERROR | main_thread | MuseSamplerLibHandler::MuseSamplerLibHandler | Unable to open MuseSampler library, path: /home/gandsnut/.local/share/MuseSampler/lib/libMuseSamplerCoreLib.so

On my Ubuntu 22.04 system, NOWHERE is libMuseSamplerCoreLib.so to be found. NO--WHERE. Also, I am not able to 'get' it ANYWHERE online, in a .deb bundle, or simply searching by name of the file. All research recommendations lead to dead-ends.

If you have the muse-hub.service running, you probably can find libMuseSampletCoreLib.so in
/srv/muse-hub/downloads/Installers/something/musesampler-linux-xxxx.tar.zip
But i would suggest to install "Muse Sounds Manager" from https://www.musehub.com/ instead - at the very end of the page. (Beta) It solves most of the security concerns for Linux users.

muse-hub.service was running, and I restarted it. Nothing exists below /srv/muse-hub/downloads.
The "Muse Sounds Manager" (a .deb package) contains no needed 'libMuseSamplerCoreLib.so' file.

On you system, obviously that would be under
/oflow/MuseHubSounds/muse-hub/downloads/
since you choose a custom path.
Indeed, the "Muse Sounds Manager" does not contain the library. It will be downloaded (and installed) when you install the package. The 'Muse Sounds manager' is a download manager - for sounds and the library. Just like 'Muse-hub' is a download manager.

Found, per your suggestion. Inside a .zip file. Created new subdir as seen in attachment. Put the library file there. Mu4.2.x now knows about the MuseSound library.
Now to resolve the greyed-out choice of MuseSounds in Menu->View->Playback setup. Thanks again.

OK, great.
Perhaps the soundfiles cannot be found.
You should have a config file (hidden file .config)
~/.local/share/MuseSampler/.config
with just one line with the location of the instruments, in your case:
/oflow/MuseHubSounds/muse-hub/downloads/Instruments/
Also, the library you have is very old (0.3.2). I have 0.4.3.
Did the library come from the most recent zip file?
Normally, muse-hub should upgrade sounds and library when you run it. (and also create the .config file)
I don't think custom install locations actually work. Maybe in some cases, but none I've tried. I recommend installing to the standard location, and using a shortcut aka symbolic link if you need them to "really" live elsewhere for whatever reason.

I just suggested to check the logfile. Any serious troubleshooting begins with checking logfiles.
How would you solve the OP's problem?
(and no, i do not have a custom install location)
