Background Music not shown in System Settings #713

Closed Ecauchy closed 7 months ago

Description of the bug

I use brew to install the app and it tells me "needs permission to use microphones", meanwhile I cannot find the setting for it in System Preferences > Security and Privacy > Microphone. There's no box for Background Music. Besides when I tried to uninstall it, I follow the manual in the README.md which says that I should execute the uninstall.sh in the app content, but after I execute it, I still cannot install it again using brew. It turns out to be that I should use "brew unintall background-music", am I right?

It turns out to be a problem connected with the apple system but not bgm. I delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist and restart my mac, and open bgm and then everything is OK.
