AudioDriverKit Extension for Virtual Devices?
At 3:38-4:00 in the session video, it seems Baek San Chang says that AudioDriverKit will not be allowed to be used for virtual audio devices... Keep in mind that the sample code presented is purely for demonstrative purpses and creates a virtual audio driver that is not associated with a hardware device, and so entitlements will not be granted for that kind of use case. For virtual audio driver, where device is all that is needed, the audio server plugin driver model should continue to be used. The mentioning of sample code is a little confusing; Does he mean the entitlements for hardware access won't be granted for a virtual device? That would seem obvious. But if he means the entitlements for driver kit extensions (com.apple.developer.driverkit and com.apple.developer.driverkit.allow-any-userclient-access) won't be granted for virtual audio devices, and this is why AudioServerPlugins should still be used, then that's another story. Are we allowed to use AudioDriverKit Extension for Virtual Devices? The benefit of having the extension bundled with the app rather than requiring an installer is a significant reason to use an extension if allowed.

Example code of AudioDriverKit stopped to work on macOS 12.0.1
Hi, Example code of AudioDriverKit from WWDC2021 stopped to work correctly for me. It builds and loads but when I want to record sine wave immediately after startIO function stopIO is called. It happens on both MacBook Air and Mac mini with macOS 12.0.1. I discovered it because my audio driver also stopped to work correctly - exactly the same problem I described above. Earlier I was testing both example code and my audio driver on macOS 12 public beta and everything was ok. Below I paste logs from console when I start recording: default 12:54:19.161261+0100 kernel StartIO: Start IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.161274+0100 kernel StartIO: Start IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.161092+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOEngine2::StartIO: starting IO on device SimpleAudioDevice-UID default 12:54:19.161279+0100 kernel StartIO: Start IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.161138+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOEngine2::_StartIO(435) on Context 443 state: Prewarm: 0 Play: 0 State: Stopped default 12:54:19.161374+0100 CAReportingService CAReportingService.mm:157 service type 9 set for reporter 897648164879 default 12:54:19.161437+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOEngine2::_StartIO(435) on Context 443 state: Prewarm: 0 Play: 1 State: Running default 12:54:19.161761+0100 coreaudiod HALS_Device::_GetCombinedVolumeScalar: client 246 (pid 517) is not present and has a combined volume scalar is 1.000000 default 12:54:19.161798+0100 coreaudiod HALS_Device::_GetCombinedVolumeScalar: client 246 (pid 517) is not present and has a combined volume scalar is 1.000000 default 12:54:19.161808+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOUADevice::HandlePropertiesChanged: Object: 431: SimpleAudioDevice-UID default 12:54:19.162034+0100 coreaudiod 'goin', 'glob', 0 default 12:54:19.162580+0100 coreaudiod CAReportingClient.mm:508 message { "device_is_aggregate" = 0; "input_avail_phys_formats" = "{ [16/48000/1 lpcm], [16/44100/1 lpcm] }"; "input_avail_virt_formats" = "{ [32/48000/1 lpcm], [32/44100/1 lpcm] }"; "input_bits_per_channel" = 32; "input_bytes_per_frame" = 4; "input_bytes_per_packet" = 4; "input_channels_per_frame" = 1; "input_device_source_list" = Unknown; "input_device_transport_list" = BuiltIn; "input_device_uid_list" = "SimpleAudioDevice-UID"; "input_format_id" = lpcm; "input_frames_per_packet" = 1; "input_num_tap_streams" = 0; "input_scalar_volume" = "1.000000"; "io_buffer_size" = 15; message = StartHardware; "output_num_tap_streams" = 0; "output_scalar_volume" = "1.000000"; "sample_rate" = 48000; }: ( 897648164879 ) error 12:54:19.163011+0100 coreaudiod 206515 HALS_IOUAUCDriver.cpp:500 Throwing Exception: ret != kIOReturnSuccess Failed to register event link error 12:54:19.163100+0100 coreaudiod 206515 HALS_IOUAEngine.cpp:157 Failed to register io thread! default 12:54:19.163950+0100 kernel StopIO: Stop IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.163968+0100 kernel StopIO: Stop IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.163974+0100 kernel StopIO: Stop IO: device 2 default 12:54:19.163166+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOContext_Legacy_Impl::IOWorkLoop: failed to register io thread error 12:54:19.163310+0100 coreaudiod 206515 HALS_IOUAEngine.cpp:180 Throwing Exception: error != 0 Failed to disassociate event link 22 error 12:54:19.163482+0100 coreaudiod 206515 HALS_IOUAEngine.cpp:187 Failed to unregister io thread! default 12:54:19.163613+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOEngine2::StopIO: stopping IO on device SimpleAudioDevice-UID default 12:54:19.163744+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOEngine2::_StopIO(435) on Context 443 state: Prewarm: 0 Play: 1 State: Running default 12:54:19.164082+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOUADevice::HandlePropertiesChanged: Object: 431: SimpleAudioDevice-UID default 12:54:19.164134+0100 coreaudiod 'goin', 'glob', 0 default 12:54:19.164289+0100 coreaudiod CAReportingClient.mm:480 stopping ( 897648164879 ) default 12:54:19.164542+0100 coreaudiod CAReportingClient.mm:508 message { "session_duration" = "0.003519058227539062"; }: ( 897648164879 ) error 12:54:19.165611+0100 Audacity HALC_ProxyIOContext::IOWorkLoop: the server failed to start, Error: 0x77686174 default 12:54:19.165045+0100 coreaudiod IO Stopped Context 443 after 0 frames. default 12:54:19.165199+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOContext_Legacy_Impl::IOThreadEntry: 443 SimpleAudioDevice-UID (SimpleAudioDevice-UID): stopping with error 2003329396 default 12:54:19.165220+0100 coreaudiod HALB_PowerAssertion::Release: releasing power assertion ID 34859 of type 'PreventUserIdleSystemSleep' with name: 'com.apple.audio.context443.preventuseridlesleep' on behalf of 517 error 12:54:19.165390+0100 coreaudiod HALS_IOContext_Legacy_Impl::StartIOThread: the IO thread failed to start, Error: 2003329396 (what) Any advice?

OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain error 9 while trying to run the SimpleAudioDriverExtension
Video: https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2021/10190/ I'm trying to run the sample code from the SimpleAudioExtension workshop I get a validation error for OSSystemExtensionErrorDomain. Is there something that is missing from the instructions that is required to work around this error? If not, how would one work around this?
