Problems with Airplay on Apple TV3 after upgrading to Sequoia 15.0

My MacBook air is the M2 version and today after upgrading to Mac OS Sequoia 15.0, the airplay connection with Apple TV3 will randomly disconnect after a short while. It could be reconnected but then the same thing will happen again. Since I use this airplay for music in living room, this really annoys me a lot and now i am not able to listen to music via the airplay. Please let me know how could I tackle this?


I checked everything including reset/restart Apple TV, router and my MacBook air and all in vain. Thanks.

MacBook Air, macOS 15.0

Disabling the firewall worked for me and I can now screen mirror again to Apple TV 3rd Gen 18.2 from My Macbook Pro 15.2. Issue started immediately after upgrading to macOS Sequoia 15.2. I could easily screen mirror to iPad and can also mirror from another laptop running macOS Sonoma 14.5 to the Apple TV.


Again, disabling the firewall brought back the screen sharing functionality for me instantly. Enabling the firewall (Settings -> Network -> Firewall) doesn't seem to disrupt screen sharing immediately, but it makes it so that the feature stops working next time I try to connect with a dialog "Could not connect to Apple TV"

I could see no offending rules in the Options area of the firewall.

MacOS Sequoia 15.1 was released today along with iOS 18.1 and Apple tvOS 18.1. Since updating all of my devices, I am no longer experiencing this. It appears that 15.0/18.0 broke this feature and the update that was released today fixes it.


Update your devices and let me know! I hope it works for you guys because it was so annoying.
