since updating my OS to Sequoia, when i play an imported audio track in Logic Pro 11, it cuts out randomly in spots

I been creating audio tracks with other software and import the individual instrument tracks into Logic Pro 10 & 11 3 or 4 months. Before that, I did the same with Logic Pro 10 on a MacBook Pro. Never had a problem. Since I've installed the Sequoia OS on my Mac Studio w/ the Apple M2 Ultra chip and 64 gb memory, the imported track's volume drops out randomly from time to time and I don't know why.
