This only started happening after the latest update to 1.20.30. When opening Minecraft, it will disable my PC's audio. I can't get it back even by switching audio devices. I am forced to restart my entire PC.

I am clearly not the only person: https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/16my2xs/so_the_new_bedrock_12030_update_breaks_my_pcs/

But I'm sure this will be ignored just like all the other bugs I've reported. But really, how does this even pass quality checks?
