STILL NOT WORKING
Is this so?
While you may experience this issue, it doesn’t seem to be a general issue with this macOS major release.
I'm at 13.7.7. now.
Excellent, that includes the latest fixes. What's new in the updates for macOS Ventura - Apple Support
Just wanting to playback the music cd, not import it.
Also, I can playback that cd when audio output is not behind BT connection.
Please specify which bluetooth device this is about. Wireless headphones? Earbuds? Standalone active speaker? Other external audio equipment (receiver, amp, DAC, etc.)?
Which brand and model?
To connect new Bluetooth audio gear, set the bluetooth device to discovery mode (see its manual), and then find it listed in macOS System Settings﹥Bluetooth﹥Nearby Devices﹥…
There would appear a Connect button next to the device name, when hovering there with the mouse pointer.

Previously paired devices would be remembered, and be listed under My Devices.
For already paired devices that don’t work as they should, it may help to do ⓘ﹥Forget This Device, and then Connect and pair again from Nearby Devices.
You can verify the sound output to the Bluetooth device in: System Settings﹥Sound﹥Output & Input﹥Output﹥[select device]. Selecting anything here doesn’t change the pairing or connection, only where the Mac should send the audio to.
