Found even though macOS can't see it
Audirvana doesn't tell macOS what it's playing, so Lyrimuse asks Audirvana itself for the song, where it is and the playback buttons. Allow it once when macOS asks.
Audirvana is the hi-res player for audiophiles. Lyrimuse finds the lyrics for what it plays and shows them under the notch, in the menu bar or on the desktop, in step with every word.

Both the subscription Audirvana Studio and the one-time-purchase Audirvana Origin work.
A .lrc file with the same name as the song, or lyrics saved inside the file, are picked up, and you can have them win over online sources.
With Accessibility permission, shuffle, repeat and volume in the lyrics window work Audirvana's own playback bar.
Lyrimuse doesn't need your Audirvana account. Sign in to Audirvana as usual and pick it in the setup guide.
Everything else works the same in all twenty players: desktop lyrics, the capsule under the notch, the menu bar, the Touch Bar, the Lyrics Window, translations, pronunciations and Last.fm scrobbling. Try it on the home page
