Last night I paused a video (playing off an external drive) for about
10 minutes. When I restarted there was no sound. In fact, there was no
sound anywhere (iTunes, etc). I restarted but no help. In the end I
just shut the (2012 Mojave) MBP down. Whe I booted this morning it was
the same. Another restart & sound came back - everywhere except the
video files on the external (although one did briefly play).
Ironically, VLC works for these files (although I could swear I tried
it last night and it didn't work...) I actually switched to IINA
because the last iteration of VLC did almost the same - no sound after
a pause (which was usually fixed by quitting the app and trying again).
I also got a couple of weird pop-ups when trying to figure things out
https://imgur.com/a/HhTPSVB The Audio Units one when clicking a video
file, and the PayPhone one when clicking an album in iTunes to test -
and Imgur froze after uploadong those screenshots...
DU shows the HD and external are both ok.

mp4's DO have sound if I preview them, or click on the play button on
the file image.

I use IINA (under Mojave), and have never had any problems. Sorry this isn't
a lot of help.

No help, but I've never had that with VLC.

it anyway, so it's a stupid popup. I should log that as a bug report
again, actually.

box that might callout to web-hosted stuff? The website itself is
defunct, and "The certificate for www.losangelespayphones.com expired on
14/09/2020." and prevents browsing unless you try hard, so the cert
process is working as it should.

If sound is broken everywhere it's not overly likely to be your playing
apps that are the cause. Do you have any Rogue Amoeba sound-twiddling
apps installed, screen casters, anything like that which would insert
themselves deep into the audio subsystem?
If it happens again try an SMC reset when you're doing the reboot
dance.

OK - thanks for the info. I did delete it and try a couple of prior
versions, but same result.

nosound issue.
(didn't really like it anyway). However, 'Revisionist History' is
wonderful! https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Gilman_Mom :)

That was the original reason I started looking for a VLC alternative.
