As I discovered this morning, the Background Sounds feature in macOS Sequoia shuts off for no apparent reason. At least I know it’s not just my problem.
An alternative: the free app ColorNoise: white, pink, and brown noise, available from the menu bar. But you won’t see that Neapolitan ice-cream icon in the menu bar: up there it’s just in black and white.
Note: this app works only from the menu bar. The icon in the dock won’t do a thing. So add the app to your login items and you can then run ColorNoise (and hide the dock icon) via the menu bar.
Thank you, Peter Hafner!

Michael, I used to see a message here on your comments page saying “please be relevant”. Now I don’t see any message from you at all.
I thought about that because I’m not sure that this is really relevant, but it’s another example of a product that doesn’t always work as it should – – Silk almond milk. You said they have redesign the cap but it must not be universal yet:
I bought a carton a couple days ago and it was so hard to open the plastic round cap, I ended up opening it the entirely old-fashioned way – – by opening the cardboard ends that are folded into a squinch (I think that’s the architectural term).
PS. As you may know:
Squinch: a small arch, corbeling, or the like, built across the interior angle between two walls
Yikes. I guess it’s not on all their cartons yet. I think I know the squinch (is that the real term?) from academic architecture.
Google took away that message. I’d have to use a different comment form to get it back or figure out something else. You’re not the first person who’s noticed it’s gone.
Gone, but not forgotten.
