Sound input not working with Win 11. Tried everything including Microsoft support techs. Is this common with Win 11?

Which recording apps?
There are quite a few settings in "recording apps" that need to be set properly so you can record from the mic.
I wanted to record what was coming through my speakers, and had to choose: Windows WASAPI
I don't even know what that stands for. LOL
Here, I just looked it up...

LOL. It sounds very much like a hardware > software settings issue. "MS techs" are just a call centre collection of parrots who recite responses off cue cards, they probably wouldn't have a clue (or give a fig)
You've come to the right place ...

Check this.
Open whatever app you are having problems with. Right click on sound icon in bottom right task tray. Select volume mixer.
Under apps, if your app has access to sound it will be listed there. Make sure the little speaker icon to the right of the app name is not muted (has X on it)
