If I Select the internal speakers on the M1 MacPro the audio plays but an annoying pop-up appears warning about DAC exclusive mode. There simply isn’t time to press the “don’t display this anymore” button. So this works but it is annoying.
However, if I connect a pair of air Pods, specifically the second generation model, I get the warnings and no sound.
Thinking this might be an Intel/Apple Silicon thing I drug out an older Intel core i7 MacBook Pro. Ran the same tests with the same results. So probably not a CPU issue. I think it has something to do with the air pods. Perhaps y’all could investigate this and get rid of that DAC exclusive pop-up.
Thanks
