Audacity finds external mic but can't record or monitor

I’m trying to connect Audacity to my Zoom UAC-2 driver which connect my Rode mic.

Audacity finds the mic but then I can’t monitor sound or record. I’ve tried rebooting, disconnecting the mic, using the alternative port but nothing works. Thoughts?

Audacity needs access to “Microphone” in system settings.

Thanks for the reply. I confirmed the audacity does have access through system settings.

I also tested in garage band and it works so the issue is audacity specific.

Any other ideas?
