TapNoiseAfter an app update, first confirm that you launched the intended copy and that macOS still shows its required permission. A duplicate app or changed identity can make an existing permission entry less informative than it looks.
Check the running copy
Move the updated app into Applications and launch it there. Avoid running one copy from Downloads while inspecting another copy’s expected settings.
For TapNoise, use the menu’s permission status and its Open Input Monitoring action. That keeps the diagnostic tied to the app requesting access rather than a guessed setting elsewhere.
Follow macOS’s restart request
If macOS asks you to quit and reopen the app after changing access, do so. A checkbox change may not repair the already-running process immediately.
Test in TextEdit before returning to a complex editor or remote session. If ordinary text entry works but sound does not, inspect the app’s volume and quiet mode separately.
Avoid a broad reset
Do not reset all privacy permissions or grant Full Disk Access just to restore one typing feature. That changes unrelated apps and can create more work without identifying the cause.
If the entry is absent, TapNoise’s missing-entry guide explains its normal request path. Agent hooks are another layer: a moved app can need Repair even when keyboard permission is already correct.
