StaffPad doesn't play some instruments

Hi there!

I'm writing some arrangements for 7 piece Band (Trumpet, Tenor Sax, Trombone, Piano, Bass, Tumbadoras, Drum set and Timbales and Voice)
For some reason, StaffPad doesn't play the full instrumentation in the score. In different arrangements, different instruments are missing (StaffPad ignores them entirely when I press play). I'm still cluless about why is this happening, but the only pattern that I've been observing is that StaffPad generally doesn't read the 2 or 3 last instruments I write. When I write them all simultaneously it just doesn't read some at random.

What can I do about this?
Any idea about what's going on and how to fix it?

I'm using a M1 2022 iPad Pro and the StaffPad version is: StaffPad v1.6.1

Thanks a lot for your help!!

If you solo a track that is missing something does it then work properly?
 
Hi!
Sorry for the late reply but I've been ultra busy writing those arrangements.
No matter what I do with the problematic tracks: Soloing them, putting their volume up, writing "Forte" in the chart, or trying taking their volume up with Automation, nothing works.
Actually, in today's transcription something really weird happened:
I started writing the horns (Trumpet, Tenor and Trombone) and everything worked well.
Then I wrote all the instruments left and finished the entire Score. But when I pressed play the Trumpet and Trombone were gone. Do you guys know what's going on?

Have you installed the newest update?
 
Same here, no sound either with the muse snare drum. IOS 17, everything updated in Staffpad. The Staffpad snare works though.

Is it normal that in the instruments selection list, both the Staffpad snare drum and the Muse snare drum are selected (in blue) whereas I added only the Muse one ?
