I'm afraid I don't know the cause or solution of this problem, but I do 
encounter the same error from time to time when trying to create beamer 
slides with pandoc from markdown (using XeTeX).
Two things might be of interest: First, iirc, the problem first occurred 
after one of the latest macOS updates (I think it was the update to 11.3 
and not 11.3.1, but I'm not entirely sure). Second, the problem only occurs 
from time to time. Most of the time, building the slides works fine. Even 
if it occurs, a second run directly afterwards normally succeeds.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to reproduce the problem up to now.
