I primarily use my Mac for iOS development, so I rarely use audio and I commonly have it turned of to not disturb my co-workers. Therefore I'm not really sure when it stopped working.

Anyway, today I wanted to play a song, but I got no audio. I rebooted the Mac and still nothing. I rebooted again and noticed that the boot sound played, but once I entered OS X I couldn't get any sound to play.

What's up with that?

  • What appears under output devices on the output tab in sound preferences?

  • Well, it works now, but there's something called Soundflower (2ch) and Soundflower (16ch) in addition to the built in speakers. I suppose the problem might have been that one of those were selected as output device.

    Soundflower is an internal audio routing system that is VERY 3rd party. You must have installed it separately, and that absolutely could have been your problem.

  • @NReilingh seems like something Plex installed.

I connected and disconnected my headphones and now I have audio again.

  • This still happens on brand new Macs? Anyway, don't forget to accept this answer even though you posted it yourself.
