SAME issue! ASUS ROG Strix Z690-E Gaming Wifi with "Realtek USB Audio". Game starts, after 41% load the complete computer sound is GONE. But my Game starts.
My Workaround after reading this thread: 1. Go to Start > Settings > System > Sound > on the right side under "Related settings" > Sound Control Panel,
2. select the "Loudspeaker - Realtek USB Audio" playback device, right click > deactivate (i deactivated every other audio device, that i don't use also before)
3. Start the Game, now it should pass the 41% and run.
4. re-activate the audio device, you should now have Audio for the entire system
EDIT 11.11.23: great work, folks... now the workaround doesn't work anymore! I have NO SOUND and the bug is the same like before. whataver you did made it worse. No other game makes this issue but a game with graphics from 1995 isn able to just play simple ingame sounds. this is really a poor development.
