Default Output path suddenly not working

I have been using my PT on a MacBook Pro with a Clarett 4Pre USB. Yesterday was just fine. suddenly when I try to open any project, I can't route to any output/input of my Clarett. but when I play things from iTunes it comes through my studio monitors just fine. Have used various ports on my MBP, rebooting, etc. Any ideas why suddenly PT can't see any of the I/O of my interface?

First thing to double check is the correct playback engine is selected. It's very easy to get burnt by that.

If the Clarett is selected in your Playback Engine setup, then try resetting your I/O to defaults in I/O setup.

If the Clarett isn’t selected, then that’s your first problem. If it doesn’t appear as a HW device in the list, trash your preferences and see if that helps.

Welcome to the world of folks who have been caught by that before. So embarrassing when I've done it.

Was this a new session?

Typically, when you try to open an existing session and the Playback Engine selection is incorrect, it will pop up a dialog window alerting you to that which will prevent the embarrassment. HeHe...

But obviously on a new session, that won’t happen.

Oh yeah, been bitten by that one before But the best "bite" was when my IO setup managed to grow and extra bus with the same name as my outputs! I kept bouncing a mix that sounded fine, but the bounce would be missing a handful of parts. I went round and round for the better part of a day before discovering that
