Airplay Not working with Mac Catalina

Since i updated to Catalina10.15.5 i have not been able to mirror my MacBook pro screen on my Apple TV. Whenever i choose the option to airplay to my Apple TV the screen on my TV goes black and then freezes. My mac work perfectly fine, and the Apple TV plays all other apps and can mirror my iPad and iPhone ok, but cannot mirror my MacBook pro in Catalina

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Reset the SMC and your NVRAM:

Sometimes when changes are made to the system(i.e. updates), system configurations (i.e. for Networking) become manipulated, technically. So, reset the SMC and NVRAM. Your hard drive may not be being read promptly, so resetting these, all of the ports would be configured to how they should be..
