Fantastic, Bob

Glad to hear it. Great work!

I have figured out that playback does weird stuff to Apple sound settings. When playing 30.0.89 through M1 MBP speakers the speaker icon I  status bar has a bar through it yet plays fine. When inserting headphones the speaker icon changes to headphone icon. When play starts the sound still only comes through speakers. If I go into MC tools options audio device I can now select either speakers or external headphones. Using external Speakers (core audio) now plays through headphones but sound icon shows speaker. If I then remove headphones and try and play you get the something went wrong with playback message. when headphones are reinserted play is allowed again. To get back to play through MBP speaker its back into tool options sound device and select default core audio or MacBook speakers. then the speaker icon has bar through it again even though playing fine. So there are workarounds but MC seems to confuse the MBP sound cards.

I have two different bluetooth headphones, AirPods Pro 2 and Sennheiser Momentum 4.
Both play fine with all Apple music but are very selective with MC:
the AirPods only play with MC if a file is 48 kHz, the Momentum with 44 kHz.
But, at least, they are playing.
Is there any possibility other than every time to change the DSP?

I found an easier solution, making different presets on DSP & output for the headphones.
It would be even easier if I could choose the source for the output and the DSP would change to the preset values of the source.

Try creating a zone for each output device and select the audio device and DSP presets by zone.
