no solver backend found / no assembly found

I'm seemingly running into an installation issue with Assembly3 on my Mac. I've installed FreeCAD 0.21.1 from Homebrew and installed Assembly3 and its dependency via the Addon Manager. I see these lines in the report view:

13:19:19  1.391543 <asm3.main> init_gui.py(14): no solver backend found
13:19:55  (qt.qpa.fonts) Populating font family aliases took 309 ms. Replace uses of missing font family ".AppleSystemUIFont" with one that exists to avoid this cost. 
13:19:56  37.809071 <asm3.sys> solver.py(412): no assembly found

The third line is printed when I click the "Create assembly" toolbar button, and the created assembly's icon in the tree view has a 🚫 symbol on it and is dimmed out. When I try to add constraints to my assembly, it prints the same message (and again when I try to solve said constraints; the parts never move). I've tried reinstalling and deleting all my preferences files (per the Wiki).

I have the same issue :-(
