Summary: When entering notes in voice 2 (or higher) in the braille panel, when you reach a barline, MuseScore should switch back to voice 1 for the next measure.
The user must write all the voice 1 notes or rests in the next measure then type the braille in-accord sign (⠣⠜ F+D+L, S+J+K) to get back to voice 2.
Issue type
Accessibility issue (e.g. for keyboard-only or screen reader users)
Bug description
When inputting music using the Braille input feature, if you write music using multiple voices (called "in-accord" in braille terminology), the norm is to add voice 1, then the in-accord sign, then voice 2. This should repeat at each new bar. Currently, when a new bar occurs, the voice remains voice 2. The in-accord sign in the second bar means that music is entered using voices 2 and 3 instead of 1 and 2. etc. There seems no way to reset to voice 1 for each new bar, except to come out of the braille input window and select voice 1 manually.
Steps to reproduce
that is: ⠨⠹⠹⠐⠳⠳⠣⠜⠐⠏⠟
or in key presses:
This bar works well and the music appears correctly in the print.
(Note: technically, in the input of the second bar, the fourth octave sign before G crotchet is not needed, but it won't harm).

Additional context
When writing music in MuseScore's main score view, continuing to enter notes in several bars correctly maintains the same voice. It is arguable whether change voice commands should be used instead of the in-accord sign in the braille.
