MuseScore 4 mixer window collapses after opening
Since updating to MuseScore 4.0.2, the mixer window open collapsed into a thin vertical strip, about the width of a scroll bar. The contents of the window can be seen whizzing across after it opens. The window can be resized and used, but the next time it opens, it'll be collapsed again.
Repeatedly opening the mixer window without resizing it eventually crashes MuseScore.

Thanks for posting about this.
Regarding your system info
Are you also on MacOS? If so, what release?
What version of MuseScore are you using?
I've encountered Mixer issues (on MacOS) for the last couple of years:
• the undocked Mixer forgets its width and position when toggling it closed and reopened.
• Reopening the undocked MIxer commonly results in it appearing at pencil width.
• Worst of all, toggling can lead to a crash.
These matters have been reported here on .org and on GitHub.
This week I tried MuseScore 4.4.4:
It seems that the "pencil width" Mixer issue has been fixed.
But 4.4.4 still forgets the position and dimension of the undocked Mixer. And it still crashes on toggling the Mixer open and closed—sometimes it takes 30 toggles or more; other times it crashes in two or three toggles.
