Touch id not working after 14.6.1 update, macOS Sonoma…anyone find a solution?

Has anyone found a solution to getting touch id to work after updating to 14.6.1 on macOS Sonoma? I had a face id problem on my iphone 13 pro max which a genius bar visit solved, but it’s Christmas Eve and I don’t have time to take my MAC in. Any and all thoughts appreciated.

Mac mini, macOS 14.6

Predicated on " Mac mini, macOS 14.6 " user byline


The computer is a headless computer without a builtin keyboard nor a mouse


So, Touch ID would dependent on two things


One, the computer is using an Apple Touch ID configured keyboard


Two, this Mac Mini would also be an Apple Silicon machine


The current Touch ID Keyboard is a USB-C configured unit


To get the full features of this specific keyboard


Apple states " Mac with Apple silicon running macOS 15.1 or later "
