More testing on this problem:

I created a score from scratch in F2014 with 30 instruments (in 2 
banks), all Smartsynth as assigned by the wizard.  I could not get this 
problem to occur on that score.

I went back to my live score and saved it in XML format.  I closed 
Finale, then restarted it and imported the XML.  This forced all the 
instruments to be assigned to new MIDI channels starting from bank 1, 
channel 1.  I figured that would clear up the problem as there wouldn't 
be residue remaining from my MUSX file.  But this still has exactly the 
same problem.

It isn't a show-stopper, but is definitely annoying.  And here's another 
curiosity.  If I take the misbehaving score and reassign the MIDI 
instrument and/or channel, that staff no longer plays back at all.
