What actually happened was...:
No in game audio when playing version 1.21.1.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load Minecraft 1.21.1
2. Launch game.
3. Game has no sound. All other apps have sound. Audio is turned up for game in both windows and the game settings.
4. Work around found. If I load up version 1.20.1 audio works fine. If I leave that game open, and then load 1.21.1, the sound will work.

No, that is not the issue. There is no game lag, just no sound when playing 1.21.1. I will make a video.
I made a better video, but the file was over 10 Mb
@unknown Have you tried checking the audio mixer? Sometimes it can be muted.
Yes. I've checked the mixer. It is not muted. When I close version 1.21.1 it crashes with error code 1073740791. Version 1.20.1 has no issues, and sound works good. I've tried every solution that I could find, and none of them work. The issue is within the new version. All previous versions from 1.20.1 work fine. The only work around I've found is to load v1.20.1, leave it open, then load v1.21.1. If I do this, the sound will work, and the game does not crash on exit.
Thank you for your report!
