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?






Mac mini, macOS 13.2

No.


No such operations were initiated with any intention to beam or "mirror" media to the TV.


It was unprecedented.








There was a coincidence that occurred now that I review the sequence of events.


A. Mac mini media (a YouTube video) was still beamed to a TV that was off.

B. My UMC22 Behringer audio interface did not output audio into my headphones.



*Since then I tested my UMC22 audio interface on another laptop and it is normal.

I hear normal audio.



It still doesn't solve the reason why media was beamed to the TV in the adjacent room but my headphones now are operating normally.


As a reminder, I saw the words 'Airplay' with the media projected on the 32inch TCL Roku TV.


I hope this helps future readers.


I'll consider his solved but will return to this thread if left open and the same scenario repeats itself in the future.


Thank you.
