Error connecting to BGMXPCHelper

Every time I power on/restart my Mac mini 2018 (Ventura 13.6.7), I get this error msg: Error connecting to BGMXPCHelper Screenshot 2024-06-09 at 2 21 40 PM

And then Background Music will not work. I then need to reinstall "BackgroundMusic-0.4.3.pkg" in order for it to work again. However, once I shut down/restart my computer again, I have to go through that all over again.

I love Background Music! I've been using it for years without any issues, so I'm not sure what suddenly caused this issue, just in the past month or two. Maybe a MacOS Ventura update?

Anyone know how to resolve this? Thanks in advance for any help.
