Audio recording from my Apple Studio Display microphone is still fundamentally broken in every app. Latest OS and display firmware versions.<\/p>\n

And for what it’s worth, I filed this back in May as FB10017937. No response from Apple yet.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

For the last month or so, the speakers on my Studio Display have been broken. Whenever I start playing music (or any other audio), it works for a few seconds and then cuts out.<\/p>\n\n

I have one of the new Apple Studio displays.<\/p>\n

Recently, it started being weird: webcam and sound would only work sometimes…<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Friendly reminder to restart your Studio Display 🤦‍♂️<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Indeed, this worked for me. I had restarted and shut down my Mac, but I’d forgotten about restarting the display<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n

YOU HAVE TO RESTART your studio display on occasion, especially if you run into issues with the3 camera, microphone or speakers. The studio display runs its own internal version of IOS that operates the camera, speakers and microphone. Much like ANY other device that runs its own operating system, you can’t run it indefinitely without ever restarting it. You will eventually run into issues and your device does funny stuff. I got my studio display on march 18th and yesterday the camera started acting up, then the microphone etc. After hours with Apple support and trying all kind of things to isolate the issue, it occurred to me that we did EVERYTHING except restart\/reboot the display itself. because it has no power button and no software control to restart it, the only way to do it is to unplug it from the power source, wait at least 1 full minute and plug it back in. Of course it immediately solved all the issues.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

We spent so long asking for a basic 5K Retina display but never thought to specify that it should have a power button and a decent camera.<\/p>\n\n

I have to restart both my Apple Studio Displays. Otherwise, audio gets choppy and eventually just cuts out completely. Rebooting the Mac doesn’t help. You literally have to power cycle the entire Studio Display(s). Happens about every 5-6 weeks for me it seems.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

I rarely use the display’s speakers, so it’s quite possible that my display also had this problem before but that it was temporarily cured by restarting after the firmware update in May.<\/p>\n\n
