MacOS 12.5 beta 5 fixed the FTM logon issue, along with restoring several third-party apps that broke in beta 4 to functionality. No clue what the culprit was, a new feature gone awry, a "fix" with unintended consequences, but I am now faced with the decision of whether to back out the workarounds I had applied, to restore functionality. Ventura public beta is only days away, so I think I will just leave things alone until then.
