Recording Facetime calls in Mac M1 using Audio Hijack

I have used Audio Hijack for several years. Now I'm trying to use it to record calls in Facetime, but I'm having problems doing it on my Mac Mini M1. I'm using the VOIP template session which works perfectly on my Intel based Mac Book, but in the M1 the caller voice is not recorded. I want to know if someone else here had tried this. I have been in contact with the Rogue Amoeba people, but they haven't found anything.

Any ideas will be appreciated. The only thing I haven't tried is to run in Safe Mode, but there is another problem that I will post in a different message

Works fine for me. Everything is recorded fine. I could send you my session from Audio Hijack if you want.

Are you using a Mac M1? That is interesting because after several messages with the people of Rogue Amoeba the final solution was to create a complicated session to work around a problem that they noticed in my logs where Facetime was doing something strange . Please send me your session to try it

Thanks, but as I mentioned in my original message, the problem is with the M1. The Voice Chat template of Audio Hijack works perfectly on my old laptop.
