Issue Cubase 14, dropouts, hiccup

Mac M1 Max 64 GB/1TB Cubase 14 latest.

SSL Big SIX Core and 2048 buffer. About 40 tracks, all rendered, + 15 group and 6 fx groups/tracks… not a very heavy project.

The improved audio dropout simply is not working for me. I have a track that started in CB 11 or something and I now have time to finish it. I had multiple dropouts in 13, in 14 it’s much better but the track freezes occasionally with 100% Red Bar (or dot, depending where I look) and there is a 1-4 second dropout. However the dropout detection just doesn’t - says no dropout detected. That’s while it’s frozen! (and after it resumes).

I am not sure how to capture this behaviour.

And with a lower puffer (512 or 256) it‘s the same?

I will check and revert.

It gets worse, but dropouts and freezes still not shown on new panel.

ANy possibility to progress this? Still happening. Dropouts without detection.
