ACE-Step UI crashes on Mac M1 when attempting to generate music
Description
The ACE-Step server on port 42003 fails consistently when attempting to generate music.
The process gets killed (exit code 9) and the Gradio client receives HTML error responses
instead of valid JSON.
Steps to reproduce
- Install ACE-Step UI via Pinokio on Mac M1 (16GB RAM)
- Open http://localhost:3000
- Fill in a prompt (e.g., "Dark trap beat with 808s")
- Click "Create"
- Watch the process crash
Expected behavior
Music generation should complete successfully
Actual behavior
Error: "[Gradio] Failed to connect to http://127.0.0.1:42003:
Error: SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON"
Process exits with code 9 (Killed)
Environment
- Mac M1 (16GB unified memory)
- Pinokio 8.0.0
- ACE-Step Turbo
- macOS 26.2 (Tahoe)
Additional context
The error appears to be related to PyTorch/MPS compatibility.
See logs attached in system report.
