So, I found a bios update- I have a rog450f mb
I had been searching for this for some time.
I down loaded the mb bios and the audio update.
After installing and running the bios update it worked.
Again I have to kowtow....it wasn't MS issue but a hardware issue.
I am listening to Frank Zappa Apostrophe....it's appropriate.
and it's perfect.
But I still don't like the silly extra clicks in 11, or the lack of control/settings screens.
But I'm old and will get used to it.
the specific update was DRV_Chipset_AMD_TP_TSD_W10_64_V31022706_20211101R
