Since you're on an Intel Mac, Rosetta isn't involved (Rosetta has been a source of some reported issues with tethering).  The Radeon Pro 560X GPU is a 6-year-old chip but should be capable of simple tethering (if the GPU even gets used for tethering).   To narrow down the issue, try disconnecting the external display and updating to Mac OS 13.4.

 

Then try these generic troubleshooting steps:
