Anyone else had an issue?This just started within the past couple days, and I was able to boot up a clean OS and found that Audacity worked fine on it.
I am not able to even get it to play back on the internal speaker of my mac mini (m1 processor)
it says "error opening the sound device.
Try changing the audio host, playback device, and the project sample rate."

yeah I guess I'll go over that again with a fine tooth comb.
The Privacy setting is a symptom of the problem. Audacity doesn't even show up as an option in the Microphone section.

Yep found the problem. None of my sound interfaces lists any supported sample rates.
Now if I can figure out how to fix that...

Would going into Apple MIDI setup utility help with that?

Apple's "Audio MIDI Setup" app is part of my normal workflow, and thus far, no combination of settings seems to make my main system work.
Using my clean install of Big Sur on an external thunderbolt SSD works MOST of the time, but I've had the exact same problem, only it's intermittent!
Next thing to check is all cables and hubs. Can't imagine that unplugging a powered-off MixPre6 will make Audacity work with the internal speaker, but I'll try everything at this point.

I updated my macOS to Big Sur 11.6.3 and now it works fine!!!
Maybe it just needed the disc cleanup after a crash!?
That was weird but I'm glad it works now!
-
it's doing the same damn thing again now.won't even play through the internal speaker when I boot up clean and reinstall audacity (delete the folder located at ~Library>Application Support > audacity)
Grr.

OMG! I had that problem too, try to rebot
-
I rebooted at least 20 times over the course of several weeks, but now I have given up on Big Sur and moved on to Monterey.
Audacity 2.4.2 works fine in Monterey.
