Apple rolls out fix for Studio Display audio issue

Apple has rolled out a fix for the audio issue the Studio Display is reportedly having, with its updated version of the firmware for the monitor. The fix comes in the form of the Studio Display Firmware Update 15.5 (19F80) which “resolves an audio issue with Studio Display” and “requires macOS Monterey 12.4 or later”, Apple noted on its support page.
The tech giant recently admitted that there could be audio-related issues with the Studio Display, as per an earlier report by MacRumors, based on a memo by Apple to authorised service providers. According to the report, Studio Display owners faced issues like “sound unexpectedly and abruptly cutting out, audio playing at a high speed, distorted audio quality, and choppy playback.” The issue seems to be “relatively widespread” affecting hundreds of customers, added the report. Several users took to Twitter to complain about the audio problems.
