AirNote’s call-audio setup now confirms that macOS access can start without playing or listening for a test tone. The check briefly opens the real call-audio capture path and saves no audio or screen content.


This makes setup quieter and more reliable: silence is a valid success, while permission and restart problems still lead to clear next steps.
