Metronome is ruined and Instrument is playing when you don't select anything
I have found two very annoying issues in MS 4.5
The first is, if you activate the metronome and hit play, it will start playing as usual, but if you enter some notes, in this case I was working on a piano arrangement, it plays an off time piano sound along with the metronome sound, which is really annoying. Where is this piano sound coming from? I've tracked it to the metronome channel in the mixer cause that's where is coming from. How? I don't know! this is weird and annoying.
Second issue:
When you get out of the editing mode, (When you click outside the score, selecting nothing) if you play your MIDI keyboard, you will be playing the last instrument even if there's nothing selected! this is so annoying and I can't focus on my work, I can't be taking my headphones on and off. This was something it never happened in Musescore 4.4, where if you didn't select anything, even if you played your MIDI keyboard, not any instrument would be playing.
Need a solution for this cause I can't downgrade my version unfortunately

Please attach your score and give precise steps to reproduce the problem. Also check your settings in Edit / Preferences / I/O to see what devices are selected for input and output, and check those devices to be sure there are no loops or echos being created.
FWIW, there seems some similarity to my problem: ghost sounds.
When I play back my work, there is a random long note that persists for 3 or more measures. This issue began in 4.4, but back then I was able to identify a single note that began the persistent sound, delete that note, then re-enter it, solving the problem. Now in 4.5.1, the problem is worse. It occurs much more often and I cannot identify as being launched from any particular source. I suspect that some action doubles an entered note so that the deletion of the visible note does not delete its ghost, nor enable the coding to end it. However, it does end eventually, and its length in terms of beats may provide a clue. I will do further listening and exploration and see what I can determine.

Attach your score and you can have actual experts (and sometimes more than one of them) listening and exploring.
Just sayin' *shrug*
