built in speakers not showing as sound option

I started having trouble with audio on my MacBook Pro 2017 Monterey 12.1. While troubleshooting, the built in speaker option disappeared from the Sound Preferences box and the volume controls on my Touch Bar are now greyed out. Restarted, no change. Help.
