I get microphone input fine on W10 VMs in HyperV, but W11 VM says no microphone installed.

I cannot see any option in device manager to add a microphone.
using pc microphone (not an external one).

Sound is working fine - any ideas?

Thank you my friend, this was the solution. So obvious in hindsight - lol. It is a bit crazy the default is off - not intuitive.'
