Audio is mute after hibernate on macOS

[Johanneshoefener]

Issue type

General playback bug

Description with steps to reproduce

1. Open any project in MuseScore with at least one note
2. Hibernate macOS for a couple of minutes (so it really hibernates)
3. Wake up system
4. Hit Play in MuseScore

The cursor is moving and everything looks fine, but there is nothing to hear. Only after changing the audio settings (System to internal or back) or restarting musescore will the audio be audible again.

I can't remember this being an issue with musescore 3, but I'm not sure which version broke it. I'm fairly certain this was the case for all 4.x versions, though.
