I updated my Mac mini with Monterey 12.1 and while I am able to pair the Bose speaker no sound comes out. I updated the Bose software as well. Is there a fix for this, the speaker works with my iPhone and iPad and did work with my Mac mini until I updated to Monterey 12.1.
I am using Bose Companion 5 speakers and came here as after updating to Monterey 12.2 as the speaker icon had a slash through it and I was assuming it no longer worked. However, all I had to do was drag the volume control up to max and it began working again. It seems the update muted the Bose speakers. If others are having this same issue, just try manually increasing the volume in the volume control on the mac. Yeah, I know sounds stupid, but considering I always use the Bose speakers and always have the volume set to max, as instructed by Bose for use with computers, I failed to recognize the muted speaker status as such and thought it was just not working with the Bose anymore.

Open System Preferences > Bluetooth and see if it is connected. There have been some Bluetooth problems with Monterey disconnecting. I keep a Bluetooth icon in my Menu bar just in case. I am not using Bose but a receiver for my hearing aides and it becomes disconnected when not listening to music, Internet or a movie.
Monterey 12.2 upgrade stopped Bose speaker from working
