Chalking it up to M4 Macbook Pro issues.
I was experiencing this issue for a minute. I realized that I had something wrong in my session that was preventing it...I forget what it was though.

If I come across it again, I'll try to write down the situation! But there's a way to fix it. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Thanks, let me know if you think of something to try. At first I suspected some setting somewhere, as I'm also using video in the sessions. Plus there are a few posts on Reddit relating to the issue before the M4's were released.

Still, I highly suspect the M4, as its not a problem in Rosetta, and its intermittent, so it will work but then stop and I can get it to work again with a restart or pref trash.

For anyone following along, running in Rosetta does resolve all the issues mentioned in this thread, as far as I can tell. Its a bit slower, but gets the job done.

That's what I was hoping. Thanks!

Another issue I noticed today: Opening/Closing basic folder during playback leads to timing problems and stuck / hanging MIDI notes.
Not very nice for flow.

EDIT: Some other actions as well: Enabling/disabling inserts, ...

6 pages of M4 issues. Are any of these things being fixed with OS and/or PT updates? It seems like a lot of problems.

Thanks. I know you're working on it, I was curious to know if Apple's OS changes are also squashing bugs.

Great news, thanks. In the mean time, I've been able to get work done using Rosetta. Still a few crashes, but much better than native for the time being.

It must depend on your computer and setup. I've been using a M4 Mac Mini standard processor in Native for 2 months without issue.

I run Pro Tools Studio 2024.10.1 on OS15.2 and even use some Sonnox plugins. The only issue is a crash on shutting down, but that has happen for the last 3 years on all my systems.

The best advice I took from this forum was a completely fresh install.

Posting what I sent to the support after some tests :

I backuped all the prefs, deleted them all and then I could open the old bugged session without problem.
But the prefs are important since a lot of them are modified by our clients (workspace, keyboard, prefs settings, etc) so I had to restore them. The bug came back.
So I deleted the prefs again to partially restore them (all but then deleted the files in Users/Shared/Pro Tools). The bug was still there (so maybe it's a bug not related only to workspace and wavecache prefs ?).
I then deleted only the prefs in Library/Preferences/Avid. The bug was gone. I guess you'll have to check in these preferences to fix the bug.

I'm referring to the assertion error which prevent from duplicating and creating tracks, and committing.
