I am dealing with this issue as well, even on 4.3.2. It happens on Ab on the first space above the staff in alto clef, and appears to specifically happen when that note is sustained and then followed by a lower note while being played at a high dynamic (mf and above).

My workaround is to use either a staccato-tenuto articulation on that note or to add a glissando to the next note. Neither result sounds quite like normal sustain, but it's better than hearing the extra note.
