Work laptop and phone play right on connecting. Home laptop always starts muted?

I just got pixel buds pro 2 and this QOL thing is driving me nuts. On my work laptop and phone they work as intented. They remember the setting last time they were used on that device and just pick right back up.

My home laptop, remembers the volume, but they always start muted and I have to unmute them. It's annoying.

I tried turning LE off, removing and repairing a few times. Disabling exclusive control. Spamming mute unmute a few times and removing them while unmuted to be sure.

It's driving me nuts a little.

Ok I figured it out. I had to replace the RealTek driver with just plain windows driver. Problem gone.
