audio interface issues I upgraded to macOS Catalina 10.15.16 yesterday, and since that update my system will not recognize my audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 4i4). Has anyone else this issue? If so, how did you resolve it. Thanks!

Device output options missing after recent OS catalina 10.15.7 update The Internal /build in speakers option for device output for my Macbook pro is missing after recent OS Catalina 10.15.7 update. Is there any driver to upload? I can't get sound output unless using earphones or bluetooth. However, I can confirm it's a software or firmware issue as sound came back awhile when I removed the earphone jack just now. But as soon as I checked the System Preference > Sound option, it disappeared again. How to get it back?

Lost Audio iMac This started when I was running Mojave on my Late 2013 iMac, The audio just went away. I reset the Pram and the smc but none of them were successful. Hoping that installing Catalina might help I installed it. Still no audio but I did lose some older programs that I frequently used. Any further suggestions as to what actions might help?

Were they installed with software? Try reinstalling them.

Note that the software might not be compatible with Catalina.

Built-in Audio gone, too? Try an SMC reset.
