Assign Tenacity as default audio editor/player for Mac OS X

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I try to open an audio file (say, .WAV) by double-clicking it. In the past, on other versions of OS X, I was able to assign it, and only once, to be opened by Audacity. No matter what, I would double click that file, and Audacity would open it.

Now.

OS X "Big Sur" will only allow any audio file to be opened by Apple Music. I can still assign Tenacity to be the main audio editor/player. This works for one session (before my Mac goes to sleep/leave it for 10 minutes). Otherwise... Double-click, and Apple Music opens the file.

I found an app called "noTunes" here: https://github.com/tombonez/noTunes - this allows me to 'block' Apple Music from opening. It still does not reassign the files to permanently be opened via Tenacity (except for that one time per session). Is there a way that some sort of workaround can be developed, once Tenacity is installed, to keep it as the default audio editor/player?
