According to the new edition available @ UE and the commentary, Berg (had) published song V of the set in a piano/vocal reduction in 1921 but otherwise, stung by Schoenberg's disapproval, did not try to have further performances of Op.4 after 1913; the set as a whole was premiered not only posthumously but after Schoenberg's death. (It's clear from their correspondence that their mutual regard was high.)
