Hi, I have run into an issue when using Musescore 3 Beta 2, version 3.3.023833 revision: d3bff12. I use the space bar to play the score and it works when I first open up the project, but after a while it suddenly doesn't work anymore and it's like the space bar function stops to function at all within the program. Then I have to manually click the play button to start and stop every time I need to insert a note or when playbacking. After a while or by doing different actions it suddenly works again after a while before it stops working again.

One thing I can imagine is that you're in a mode (like Edit mode) where playback is disabled - like if you had accidentally double-clicked something. So if it happens again, check the bottom right to see if says "Edit mode", and try hitting Esc once or twice to return to normal mode.
