Apple - No sound MacBook Pro 2016 13" touchbar macOS Sierra 10.12.2

Fixed it with sudo killall coreaudiod


If your Control Strip stops working after sudo killall coreaudiod try sudo killall ControlStrip afterwards.


I experienced this problem with a MBP 13" TB, which I use with AirPods. Probably the combination of using Airpods/a bluetooth audio device is what's causing this problem.

What worked for me was:

  1. sudo killall coreaudiod
  2. sudo killall ControlStrip
  3. Open/Close laptop lid
