Description
In this case it happens for the 3.3 core profile, at least, we need to look into that.
I think on Mac OS X, 3.2 is the only supported core profile and thus maybe this happens because OpenAL isn't extracted as the Graphics fail to initialize?
Stuff to investigate, at least.
Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: 'java.lang.String org.lwjgl.openal.AL10.nalGetString(int)'

Research direction
Start by tracing the reported call path from com.jme3.system.lwjgl.LwjglAbstractDisplay through LegacyApplication and ALAudioRenderer to com.jme3.audio.lwjgl.LwjglAL and org.lwjgl.openal.AL10. Reproduce the failure on macOS with the 3.3 core profile, then determine whether graphics initialization or OpenAL extraction causes the UnsatisfiedLinkError. Done means the cause is confirmed and the affected initialization path works or reports the limitation clearly.
