I installed KB5035942 and unless I'm severely mistaken, the issue seems to be resolved.
Can anyone else confirm?

Dear colleagues, after updating Windows 11 to 22H2, there were significant problems with playing files purchased from iTunes in .m4a (AAC, ALAC) format. This problem has been fixed by a lot of people all over the world and is especially evident on the DJ forums. Problems are observed with the quality of playback, and with the volume and with a number of other parameters. This problem is detected on software that uses the built-in Windows 11 22H2 codecs (on earlier versions, the problem is not observed), Windows Media Player, RekordBox, Serato DJ Pro, etc. On players that use their own codecs (VLC, iTunes, JetAudio HD, etc.) there is no problem. When converting m4a to mp3, there are no problems. What it looks like: https://youtu.be/WqAA12pfWjg and https://youtu.be/um3QSTuLg6s Software vendors fix this issue after the 22H2 update as well, label it as a Microsoft issue and offer a workaround, such as converting the entire m4a database to other formats, which of course is completely unacceptable advice with a database of several thousand files. https://forums.pioneerdj.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/12212808237337-RekordBox-5-8-7-m4a-problems Does Microsoft acknowledge the existence of this problem and when is it planned to release an urgent fix, since. the problem has been observed for a very long time and prevents normal operation?
Thanks in advance!

Sure, I'll be here if you need us
Thank you for your advice. I understand perfectly well that you can remove a specific update and even roll back a release to a previous version. Only the current list does not have the problem that I described. This is definitely a problem with the Microsoft codec(in 22H2) and I hope this little fix will be released soon.
IT,
You can choose to remove the specific update, but it is not advisable due to the patch's security fixes.
Colleague, thank you. I am aware of these URLs and track this information. But there, except for problems with ISST, nothing applies to sound. I maintain the system in perfect order and with all the updates that come out. Unfortunately, the problem has not been resolved yet. According to other users, the problem was recognized and taken into work quite recently.
