Music sheet material is using your bare fists as a casting tool for all bard things, not the weapon itself.

Edit: Music Sheet material also doesn't seem to be making it count as an instrument for passives like the Harp Plucker's Glove's +5 hit to instruments, Dark Bard's Bard's Dexterity, etc. Might be intentional though!

You may want to list specific skills you tested. As far as I could tell, the only skills that behave this way are the Performer ones, which have been corrected in 3.01.

The skills which give bonuses to instruments not working with Sheet Music is intended. Sheet Music doesn't turn the item into an instrument, only lets it be played like one.

Oh, my bad. I tried it with Dark Bard's and Hell's Beating, Pyrotechnics, Detonation Rift, Hard Note, Raid the Rafters, Obey Your Master, On A Leash are all using Bare Fists as your instrument instead of the weapon in question. I think it might just be specifically Dark Bard's.
