Tubular Bells: Strange player name

A tiny thing I just saw:
When I add a player with the instrument “Tubular Bells”, the resulting player’s name ist “Tubularblls”:

(Same thing happens when I have a player without an instrument an add the Tubular Bells.)

No idea where this is coming from; I have never edited the instrument manually, and the instrument editor shows nothing like this for those bells.

I’m using Dorico in German. As I see it, the instrument should be named “Röhrenglocken”, but the score also says “Tubular Bells”. (I have configured German instrument names.)

Interestingly, the instrument editor has 2 instruments: One is called “Tubular Bells” and has the correct German name “Röhrenglocken”, but there now is a second entry “Tubular Bells (im Projekt)” which has the English names.

Thanks, everyone!

I cannot reproduce the issue. The second misspelled instrument is likely a custom one. You can delete it in the Instruments dialog in menu Library.

I can reproduce it with German instrument names selected in Engraving options and German UI language. When adding a single player “Tubular Bells”, I get “Tubularblls” instead of “Röhrenglocken”. It works correctly when the UI language is set to English.
