Audio output not working through HDMI with Logic Pro

My new M1 MacBook Pro 16" running Monterey 12.3.1 is connected via HDMI as Audio Device

I use the HDMI as Audio Device (This worked on all my older Intel MacBook Pro's) including Monterey 12.2.1 on the M1. But since updated to 12.3.1 no longer works. I got with Logic sample rate errors or just no sound.

And i need to work with 44.1Khz

Has anyone a similar experinece with that?. From my point of view Perhaps it goes to the same direction like the Sound Crackling from AppleTV and the distortion problems from internal Speakers. beacuse might have to do a similar thing with with the sample rate in 12.2.1. And on the Audio Midi config: The main HDMI out can not modified because 44.1 is greyed out.

Reboot etc. does not helps.

On my side i have no more ideas why is this in 12.3.1 and on intel macs there is no such problem at all, there is running fine.

Logic Pro: 10.7.3

M1 MaxPro 16" 12.3.1

Weird but at least it is gone for you :-)

Because of my problem with HDMI and 44.1Khz i tested a few devices.

But can't get a 5.1 connection at all. But this is another thing and this thread is here:

I am not having this exact problem, but I am having HDMI-attendant issues since my last Monterey upgrade. I have an older (2014) Mac Mini, that I use as an input to my AVR receiver. For the last 7y, it has worked perfectly. However, as of this last upgrade, my audio channels are messed up. The centre channel is coming out of my left rear surround speaker, for example.

Hi David

Ok thats also strange.

Logic is here definitive not the problem, i testet with earlier 10.7.2 and 10.7.3 (ActuaL 10.7.4)

I think the problem is the OS 12.3.1 for our problems.

Now i test another thing with a few soundcards to get a 5.1 connection via toslink but without success.

But this is another thing and i do a new thread for this

@skynet3020: I went into the audio utility, thinking I'd remap the signals to the actual speakers. I initially just mapped them to their proper channels: L->L, C->C, R->R, etc. I tested this, and problem disappeared. So weird.
