Thats started after updating xcode recently to have opportunity to run UE5.5. Looks like unreal interprets such warnings from plugins as errors by default

Found temporary fix - in FMOD plugin just wrap this line with clang ignore

// Plugins/FMODStudio/Source/FMODStudio/Private/FMODStudioModule.cpp
    if (!Settings.StudioBankKey.IsEmpty())
    {
#if defined(__clang__)
#pragma clang diagnostic push
#pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wdangling-assignment"
#endif

        advStudioSettings.encryptionkey = TCHAR_TO_UTF8(*Settings.StudioBankKey);

#if defined(__clang__)
#pragma clang diagnostic pop
#endif
    }

k it seems unstable when we have bForceCompilationAtStartup enabled and after second run it throws error again better to just fix it

#include "Containers/StringConv.h"

// replace this
// advStudioSettings.encryptionkey = TCHAR_TO_UTF8(*Settings.StudioBankKey);

// by this
FTCHARToUTF8 EncryptionKeyUtf8(*Settings.StudioBankKey);
advStudioSettings.encryptionkey = EncryptionKeyUtf8.Get();
