Audirvana Does not Apply Hugo2 "Plays With" Settings

A very minor issue. After installing the macOS 15.0 release candidate software (clean install) and reloading my applications, after opening AS, when switching to the Chord Hugo 2 the prompt for plays with Audirvana appears, I select the Hugo 2, but the PWA manufacturer settings are not applied. (See screenshot). Restarting AS, disconnecting the computer and reconnecting it to AS, removal/re-attaching the Hugo 2 does not change this, on first output selection of the Hugo2 the PWA screen reappeares but when selecting the Hugo2 again the settings are not saved.

All other PWA devices in my home (KEF LS60 and LS50WII) do show the PWA certification and save the manufacturer settings. Not important but thought I would mention it in case this is an issue related to macOS 15 (Sequoia) which will be released on Monday.

Issue was not macOS 15, reinstalled AS after removing all traces of it from system. Replaced my current database with a “clean” back-up I keep with just meta data edits and artist pictures and now Hugo2 is registered correctly, played with logo appears next to DAC description, settings greyed out with a toggle to override manufacturer settings etc and no more repeated “plays with” boxes each time when connecting to the Hugo2.

Assume was either miscommunication with the AS server to get the settings or a corruption of the database file. Either way all is now good.
