In this case I would asume that your motherboard vendor included the Nahimic audio service or a variant of it in the driver.
Might be worth researching.
You might try what I suggested here about the "Save boot".

Hi again, Holger!
Followed the steps again, files attached. Please disregard the first failed command; that was user error, just a typo. Everything seemed fine based on the Checkhealth and Restorehealth commands. Scannow did seem to return an issue of some sort, but looks like it also resolved the problem. Tried a reboot and tried the game again, still the same error message.
