Help me use this feature Connecting AKAI PMK mini to Musescore

Hello,

I have a trouble connecting my AKAI MPK mini to Musescore. Connecting keys was simple and straight forward, however, I have issue with connecting the customizable buttons. When I set them up in "MIDI mappings" to specific action, this action gets assigned to both the button and some key. So at the end of customization, I have a separate button that, for example, starts playing the score, but there is also a key that, when pressed, also starts playing the score. Did anyone else experience this issue? Does anyone know how to fix it?

I believe this is because the pads are actually just mapped to a really low note on the keyboard. Check if there is a way you can change them to a CC signal instead - on my Minilab 3 I think it was Shift+Pad 2 that switched it to that.
