self compiled version looks OK but unable to proxy device audio about proxy-audio-device HOT 2 CLOSED

Looks like the problem is with lines like this: ProxyAudio: error: failed to start device 202

The proxy device actually does something fairly naughty which is to open a connection to an output device. Core Audio plugins aren't supposed to actually use the CoreAudio API. Normally this would create a deadlock, but the proxy device does it from a separate thread, which seems to work in practice.

However, on line 210 of AudioDevice.cpp, the call to AudioDeviceStart is failing. My debug logging is apparently not very good because I didn't bother to actually have it print the status code being returned from this function. I recommend changing line 213 to:

syslog(LOG_WARNING, "ProxyAudio: error: failed to start device %u with error %d", id, err);

so that it prints the error code, and seeing what kind of failure you're getting. At this point I can't say why this line is working in a release build of the proxy device and not for you, but hopefully that'll give you a clue.

@briankendall Sure, thanks I'll try it later on. Another interesting thing is that the same self-compiled version runs OK on another mac, which is x86_64 arch.
So at first, I thought it may have something to do with different architecture.
