My laptop's local audio hardware does not appearing in Roon settings.

I have a Dell Inspiron 14 running Windows 11. ROCK is running on a NUC if that matters.

Anyway, running the Roon app on this laptop, the laptop's own sound hardware does not appear as one of the output options. If I go into the Audio section of the settings, there is no sign of the laptop's Realtek audio, no way to enable it.

The laptop's audio appears to be working fine in Windows settings. I can play Youtube videos just fine.

Also, when I plug my iFi hip DAC into the laptop, the computer recognizes it, but it doesn't show up in the Roon options either.

The laptop's internal audio doesn't concern me that much as the built-in speakers are terrible, but not being able to use the DAC is a problem.

I have restarted both the ROCK and the laptop multiple times. That doesn't make a difference.

EDIT: Roon Bridge is running. This is a new problem. Roon used to be able to access both the DAC and the internal audio on this machine.

Anyone ever have a similar problem?

I'm trying to set up a virtual tag to show whether an album was added before or after a certain date, but it doesn't seem to work.

If my condition is something like

<Date Added> >= 1/1/2026

saving this changes the condition to:

<Date Added>= ">1/1/2026"

Is there a secret to using comparisons on dates within the $If function?
