Connected to Marshall speaker but no sound

For anyone who using Marshall speaker, if you can pair but no sound when playing music:


Try this:

  • System Preferences
  • Sound
  • Output: make sure that your speaker (in my case it's KILBURN II) is selected


The thing is I've never had to do that before.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.2

Troubleshoot the Mac Volume:


What to Try:

  • Raise the Volume: If sound is not working, then raise the volume.


  • Remove External Devices: Verify what your output item is. Also, disable Bluetooth, if enabled.


Sometimes when changes are made to the system(i.e. updates), system configurations (i.e. for Sound) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM.


  • Boot into Safe Mode:

When you boot into Safe Mode, items load by default, with certain settings and caches set aside. So, hold down the shift key upon boot. See what happens then.


  • Create a New Administrator:

See if creating and logging in as a new administrator does the trick. There may be something misconfigured in your current user - something that is getting in the way. Go to: System Preferences > Users & Groups > Unlock > Click: "+" > Create the new administrator
