Audio Service
Sometimes macOS doesn’t detect my audio device like “AirPods Pro” or Google Mini speaker. Even when manually switching the audio output doesn’t fix it. Restarting fixes it but that is very cumbersome.
We can just kill the audio service and restart it automatically using the following command.
sudo kill -9 `ps ax|grep 'coreaudio[a-z]' | awk '{print $1}'`
Enter the password in the terminal and it is done. It should be working fine with the new audio device to switch the audio input and output. Stack Exchange Link
