Initialising bug game pass

The game doesn't find any audio device:

[13:31:59][audio2_fmod.cpp:79]: PdxAudio2: FMOD:ebug_Initialize error (File not found.).

Which is weird given you have some, but I doubt that would cause the failure to run you see.

In fact there is no mention of this game in that dxdiag at all, which is unusual for a won't-start issue like this. Some other Windows errors there though, which I have not seen before:

Not really sure what to make of that. There is also a problem in the Xbox app:

Have you checked for updates in the MS Store app? And, are you running this game from the Xbox app or the Windows store app? Whichever one, please try the other.

The only other idea I have is to select borderless Display mode in our launcher before starting the game.  

That's a login or MP error, I doubt it has anything to do with the game not starting.

It fails from both the Xbox app and the MS Store app?  

Are there any other of our games in your Gamepass right now, if so do they work okay?  

Okay, but any of our games?  

The previous game CK2 is free to play on Steam now. Does that work or have a similar problem?  

I see, than I think there is a problem in your Windows installation in the Xbox/MS store area, which I'm afraid I have no idea how to fix. Probably a clean reinstall or even reset of Windows would do it, but that's a lot to contemplate just to get a game going, I know!
