11 months ago I just tried brew install --cask background-music in a macOS 14.2 VM and it worked for me. Do you get any useful info in /var/log/install.log? After the installer fails, does it leave files/dirs at /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/Background Music Device.driver, /Applications/Background Music.app, /usr/local/libexec/BGMXPCHelper.xpc or /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.bearisdriving.BGM.XPCHelper.plist?

7 months ago And apple even documented this macOS 14.4 change and offered the same work around. I only just stumbled upon this.

6 months ago Thanks everyone. I've updated the installer to use sudo killall coreaudiod. (As far as I can tell, it doesn't need to be killall -9.)
@fatso83 From your install.log (thanks for that), I don't think this issue will be fixed for you yet, unfortunately.
2023-12-18 10:07:23+01 MacBook-Pro package_script_service[27149]: ./preinstall: sudo: unable to initialize PAM: Undefined error: 0
2023-12-18 10:07:23+01 MacBook-Pro package_script_service[27149]: ./preinstall: is not a directory.I think this means, when the installer's preinstall script first called the safe_install_dir.sh script, it failed at line 152, line 157 or line 180 because sudo failed with "sudo: unable to initialize PAM: Undefined error: 0".
Is sudo working on your system? I'm guessing you would have noticed that and it's just that preinstall scripts aren't allowed to use sudo or something, but if not, https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/636983/335482 or https://gist.github.com/bulletinmybeard/fa17ad819e23f3d8629aa723982d4703 might help.
safe_install_dir.sh should only reach those lines when /usr/local/libexec doesn't exist on your system or has unsafe permissions/ownership. Do you have that directory?
The permissions/ownership check fails if /usr/local/libexec, /usr/local or /usr isn't owned by root:wheel or is writable by group or other. You can check that manually with stat /usr /usr/local /usr/local/libexec.
Description of the bug The installer fails no matter if using Homebrew or the standalone package.
