Running KStars 3.6.4 Stable, on a MeLe PC running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

I understand that you are running on a Mac and are using an ASI Mount Controller app (version 1.8.2) that seems to connect to your AM5 mount. That indicates to me that the mount connects to the Mac serial port so I do not see any reason why it should not be found by, and connect to Indi. Do you always connect via the ASI mount controller app or was it a test to see if it would connect to the app? Could it be that the ASI mount controller app does not release the serial port correctly if you disconnect it, and prevents Indi from accessing the serial port? Sorry I don't know the Mac and OSX enough.

Good luck.
