Steps:

  1. Enter some staff text and hit Esc to leave edit mode.
  2. Hit Alt+Right to navigate to next note.

Expected result:

Status bar should tell you which note you are on.

Actual result:

Status bar still says you are on the text.

The bug does not occur if a screen reader is running.

Status PR created fixed

Fixed in branch 3.x, commit 20b6262231

_fix #306633: Always update status bar text

Fixes regression caused by commit 3960396 in PR #6173.

The accessibleMessage string is cleared in the function
AccessibleScoreView::text(), but that function only gets called if
there is a screen reader running. If there is no screen reader then
accessibleMessage would never be emptied after it was first set, hence
currentInfoChanged() was never called to set the status bar text._

OS: Windows 10 (10.0), Arch.: x86_64,
MuseScore version (64-bit): 3.5.0.12237, revision: b5add95
It is still a fault in this version of 3.5. Is it fixed in a later build?
