What do you see in "System Firmware Version" from "About This Mac" ->
"More Info" -> "General" -> "System Report"? My M4 Air running
Sequoia 15.5 shows "11881.121.1". My M1 Air is still running Sequoia
15.4.1 and shows "11881.101.1" (will upgrade it shortly). The version
before, Sequoia 15.4 (no ".1") actually broke my M1 Air for a couple
of weeks, there was something funny going on with the firmware
involving a kernel panic that mentioned t6000dart (I believe that is
the IOMMU, ie virtual memory hardware for IO), fixed by 15.4.1. It's
just a paranoid thought, but I wonder if all that stuff rolls out in
sync across all territories.
I have also not managed to reproduce this issue despite running for
many hours yesterday...
