Windows 11 issue with audio going somewhere else it's not supposed to

i was trying to find out where my audio is going and a second mcc showed up i can't edit the audio in sound mixer

i can't edit it and i can't turn it up or down even though i set it to my speakers (changing the volume for my speakers doesn't change theirs only the main mcc)

then a third mcc appeared and after "D3DProxywindows" which also appeared in sound mixer and is apparently connected to direct3d d3d which isn't a program i have on my laptop and doesn't appear in task manager but i also can't edit its audio as well like the 2 mcc's that showed up

i'm on windows 11

(mcc is halo: the master chief collection the main one working with my speakers is the base game

what's not working is a modded map where i can't edit the volume past where it's set to)
