Try hitting 9 twice or more while on a chord. Then repitch it by holding down a new chord on the MIDI keyboard and hitting Enter. Are the note spelled as expected? Try exploding it. Are the notes still spelled correctly? About quarter to half the time the bug shows in my experience. I don't use chromatic transposition all that often, but I still see problems in normally-transposed and concert staves.
Usually in a single note part, hitting 9 once on a note is okay. But do you remember EVERY note you have invoked the 9 key on? Going back and changing pitches in parts (which I do with depressing regularity) causes me to see this bug all the time.
