SD card reader not working

The card reader of my MacBook (M1 Max 2021, 16") has never worked. I hoped it finally would be fixed after installing Ventura, but no, nothing. Doesn't mount any card, also not in Disk utility.


Does anyone have any idea why and how to fix this?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.3

I agree and also never understood why it was implemented. But since it is, it's frustrating that it doesn't work.

Btw, i read somewhere that the reader might work when inserting a card before start up. And indeed it does, so it's definitely not a hardware but a software problem.
