muse-sounds-manager: init at 1.1.0.587

[orivej]

Description of changes

Add muse-sounds-manager which downloads MuseSampler (into ~/.local/share/MuseSampler) and its sound banks (into ~/.muse-hub/downloads/Instruments/ by default) for use with MuseScore (when Muse Sounds are activated in its View -> Playback setup dialog).

This works for me in one instance of MuseScore 4.4.1, but Muse Sounds do not load (are inactive in Playback setup) in further instances of MuseScore (when opening multiple scores at once) where it plays without Muse Sounds, as in #318210. This may be a bug in MuseScore.

Closes #216432

but works anyway without any issues.

hey, thanks so much @orivej

also note this old issue that appears that is muse's problem. hopefully they have fixed it already but if not someone patched the issue by downgading the opus package to version 1.4

I am not able to test right now as I am afk

Thanks! Muse Sounds Strings play fine for me, and I have not used other banks yet. If there is a crash, I could investigate it.

Hello, I want to add to this a bit. That issue you mentioned was another (but maybe related) issue, which I also have experienced in the past (where MuseScore used to just crash, instead of just silently disabling Muse Sounds like what I described in #318210, which I still am experiencing)

Not blocking
