iPlayer has no sound on live only, previous shows play OK.

I listen to live BBC Radio iPlayer every day, but today there was no sound. Yet if I select a previously aired item it plays no problem? I run Mac OS High Sierra Version 10.13.6.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.3), Leopard

Studio Display - sound gone suddenly? Hello, I've been using my Studio Display for the past few months with no problems, love it in fact. Today, upon connecting my MacBook Pro 14" - there is very weird sound behavior. 1) In applications like Teams, FaceTime, etc - there is no sound coming through (even though Sound settings are set on Output and Input both in the application and in MacOS 12.4 to be Studio Display). The other party can not hear me either. 2) When I go to Apple Music, and start playing a song, it will play like 1-2 seconds then cut out -- almost as if there is a milisecond of static before it goes out. I have lots of Airplay 2 speakers and when I test the 'casting' to one of them, the music is playing just fine (from MBP casted to Airplay output). So there is definitely something that has happened with the Studio Display sound/microphone setup... I have not noticed any software updates specifically recently to Mac OS, I'm on 12.4 (21F79).

The TV app on my MacBook Pro (NOT on an Apple TV device), won't play sound for any video. It won't play to airpods or through speakers. Other videos play sounds (like YouTube on Safari) How can I get sound to play through the TV app on my MacBook Pro?

sound in Mac Ventura 13.2.1 broadcasted to TV instead of output in settings Hello, Even though not selected in "system settings"--->"sound", sound is being played on my TV, without having been turned on....and not through my typical audio interface with headphones. My audio interface/headphones is selected under "system settings"--->"sound". Not only do I not hear any sound coming from my headphones but my TV was turned on and the sound is coming from my TV. Again, the TV, Airplay listing is not selected. The audio codec is. I rely on sound for my work in Apples Logic Pro. Does anyone else have this problem?

Is it still not working for you? It works for me with Safari, Chrome and Firefox.
