Only top staff plays back
When I push the playback button it only plays the top staff. I'm not sure if the program can only play one or not, but searched everywhere else and couldn't find any option to switch and get it to play both.
Using version 0.9.3

You should try to install a more complete soundfont. See the handbook : http://musescore.org/en/handbook/soundfont
Is there another way to fix the problem? I have it too. I would rather not bog down my PC further with a soundfont.
I am using Windows XP Home and MuseScore Version 0.9.3.
Thanks!
Does the person making the recommendation regarding how to fix this genuinely believe the action will solve the problem? "You should try..." doesn't leave me with that impression.

It is really simple:
- the buildin soundfont has only a piano sample and therefore can only play piano sounds
- mscore can play all instruments on all staves if a suitable soundfont is installed and configured

You will have to forgive the person who made the recommendation as he comes from France and is not an English native speaker, like many people on the forum. Installing a Soundfont will solve your problem as indicated in the handbook.

Indeed it was an english mistake, and I should (;-)) be more careful when writing in english.
English is not my native language, I really mean : It SHOULD solve your problem. This is a software and you are using a computer. Without seeing your screen and be near you, the best I can tell is "should" and "probably". Please excuse me if I use some safeguard :)
To answer your question, yes, I believe it will solve the problem like it does 80% of the time. And yes I was sincere and honnest using "should" ;)
