Voice Memos stopped syncing to my macOS devices after Catalina update

I am signed onto iCloud with the same account on all my devices, but while my Voice Memo recordings sync as they should among my Apple Watch, iPhone, and iPad Pro, the Voice Memos stopped syncing to my three Mac computers (work and home iMacs, and my MacBook).


I have gone into settings on the Macs and double checked to make sure Voice Memo is set to use iCloud. I even toggled them off and back on again to see if there was a bit stuck.


I have seen a few others have had this problem but the solution given was to use Airdrop to share the sound files. However, according to Apple we shouldn't have to do this: "All your memos are available on every device that's signed in to iCloud with the same Apple ID. Just turn on Voice Memos in the iCloud settings of each device."


Is this a known problem?
