Hint: enter them in lower case, if they turn to upper case, MuseScore recognized them ads chord symbols, else not

(You're all but one, it is not a website issue, and we need more information to reproduce the issue)

I can reproduce with the score given. For me, the "H" chord symbols don't playback when I first load the file, but they do after I edit the chord symbol (just double clicking and hitting Esc does it). And then they continue to play back if I save and reload. And if I create a new score with German chords, they also play just right from the beginning.

The only way I can reproduce a problem is if I create a score with default chord symbol naming, enter an "H" - which is thus flagged unrecognized - and then change the style to German. That indeed will need force existing chords to be re-interpreted - the "H" will continue to be flagged as unrecognized. So it's not just playback but everything that will fail, like parsing (H7b9 won't show the flat sign) and transposition too.

Probably we should consider reparsing things after a change, to catch cases like this. but hopefully not breaking other cases, like "B7".
