Playback meter not working in Audacity 2.4.1?

I recently upgraded to Audacity 2.4.1 as well as my MacOS to Catalina 10.15.5. It was working fine with my Blue Yeti, but when I switched to an AT2035 mic and added a Scarlett Focusrite Solo interface, I noticed that the playback meter in Audacity no longer works (only the recording meter works). It shows no activity on playback. How can I fix this?
