Yes, there seems to have been an ongoing issue related to audio playback on Windows 11, including problems with recording streaming audio. Here are a few steps and suggestions you can try to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

1. Check for Updates:
   • Make sure your Windows 11 system is up to date as some updates may have patches or fixes for audio-related issues. Go to Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates.
2. Reinstall Audio Drivers:
   • Sometimes, reinstalling the audio drivers can resolve playback and recording issues. Here’s how:
     • Right-click on the Start button and select Device Manager.
     • Expand the "Sound, video, and game controllers" section.
     • Right-click on your audio device (such as Realtek or whatever is listed) and select "Uninstall device".
     • After uninstalling, restart your computer and let Windows reinstall the drivers automatically.
3. Adjust Audio Settings:
   • Right-click on the speaker icon in your taskbar and select “Sound settings”.
   • Make sure your input and output devices are set correctly.
   • In the “Advanced” settings, ensure that the audio format matches what your applications expect (e.g., set it to 24-bit, 48000 Hz).
4. Check App Permissions:
   • Make sure that your recording apps have the necessary permissions. Go to Settings > Privacy & security > Microphone and ensure your app is listed and enabled.
5. Check Privacy Settings:
   • Windows 11 has strict privacy settings that can sometimes restrict app access to the microphone. Ensure that your recording apps have the correct permissions in Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone.
6. Use Troubleshooters:
