Before updating to Mojave I never had any issues with Cubase and my Cubase.
After the Mojave update I have updated Cubase to the Pro Version 10.0.5 (built 72 on nov 1 2018) update of nov 26th the issues started. It looks like the audio engine does not get activated. When I start a project I get no sound, even though the settings are correct.
With a project loaded I swith the VST audio + ASIO driver to f.e. build in and letting the project play and then switch back to my scarlett 2i2 device + the ASIO driver (to which my monitors are connected) after a while it looks like the audio drivers/devices are finally get active. In the clip you will see this happen at 0:40. Sometimes the audio starts clipping as you will see in the vid, but mostly that doesn’t happen and I can finally use Cubase and everything is working properly. Everytime when I fire up Cubase this happens and I need to switch the VST audio + ASIO before I can start working on a project.
I have send in a request to the support team of Cubase, but hope that someone on this forum has any ideas or perhaps have the same issue as I have with this. This issue is with projects that include VST instruments and projects with only audio.
Is your audio issue fixed ?
I have the same problem and the same Imac but can’t find any solutions. Logic pro x runs ok but not Cubase 10 with latest update. I think I’ve tryed everything…

Im having the same issues got a Macbook Pro 2012 and having no sound since upgrading the Mojave , I was using cubase 6 and when using high sierra and no real issues but then updating the mojave all problems started so I had to then upgrade to cubase 10 and now Im lucky if i get any sound come through the Steinberg UR22 M2 sound card.
At this rate I will have to wait for a new update because no matter what I try i get error messages sound issues and then I have no control over the play button it immediately stops and jumps to the end of the track and music stops. I wish I never updated to Mojave, I have also contacted Steinberg support a week ago and still no response.
No solution at this moment. Have been in contact with Steinberg support and tried a couple of suggestions, but no success. I will put some of the suggestions below for you to try them out. It did not work for me, but it may help you guys…(if succesfull, please reply).
second suggestion

Please reset your program preferences by generating a new preferences folder.
In order to do so, you must rename the folder mentioned below. Note that since Mac OS X 10.7.x the user library is hidden. To access it, please click on the “Go” menu in the menu bar of the Finder. When the “Go” drop down menu appears, you need to press and hold the key “alt” on your keyboard which adds the “Library” entry to the menu.
Now please rename
“/Users//Library/Preferences/Cubase 10”
to
“/Users//Library/Preferences/x_Cubase 10”
Important: If you find folders of previous program versions, make sure to hide or remove them too.
Preferences that have taken a lot of time to configure - the key commands for instance - can be copied from the inactive folder to the newly created active preferences folder at a later point.
I think I’ve done allmost everything I red about audio issues, inklusive renamed the preference folder.
If I toggle between built in audio and extern audio ( Steinberg UR12 ) sound will come alive after about 40-60 sek.
I doesn’t have any problem with Logic Pro X, I use Steinbergs VST Halion 6 in Logic Pro X and Groove Agent 4 without any problems !
Must we live with this…?
Please Steinberg help us !
I have the same issue. Cubase 9 / 9.5 worked great. i updated to Mojave and Cubase 10. Sessions load OK (slower than 9) but the even if I see the audio file / midi images, there is no sound. I takes a long time for the audio to engage. There is no ‘green’ on the CPU usage indicator. I have to close and open the session a few times until I (kinda randomly) becomes functional. Very frustrating. I also noticed that when I upgraded to 10, Cubase 9 is still in my apps folder. Should I remove it?
Same problem here with cubase10 & mojave on a 2015 imac. sometimes the sound comes after 5 minutes, sometimes never…
I’m losing patience in front of my daw, i’ve paid 99 euros to update cubase, i’ve installed mojave because steinberg said it was compatible… and here I am… I’m really angry that steinberg doesnt’ take this a bit more seriously…
Happy to say that indeed with the 10.0.15 update this issue has been resolved! Thanks to that replied to this issue but foremost the Steinberg team for fixing this issue.
btw I have done the Full 10.0.15 update and not just the update itself. My digital gardening days are over and I can directy go to making music!
Solution from another thread (worked for me as well):

OK so I figured out my issue by searching forever online…Mojave sees soundcard inputs as ‘microphones’ for some reason, so you need to go into Security & Privacy and allow Cubase to access your microphone…fixed my issue ! hope it helps someone else…
