So I have speakers hooked up to the 3.5mm jack on the monitor and it outputs sound when my nintendo switch is connected (via HDMI) but not on my pc (via DP) any ideas?

In the sound control panel I have my normal headphones, Speakers Realtek USB Audio (says "not plugged in"), Headphones Realtek USB Audio (says "not plugged in"), Realtek Digital Output, Sonic Studio Virtual Mixer, Speakers for Yeti classic (The mic but I don't know why it shows up as speakers as well

Any help would be appreciated
 
In system devices I have 2 "broken" audio controllers

But it's weird that nvidia doesn't allow a HD audio driver install maybe because they discontinued it in win 11? i have no idea
If it's disabled or broken in Windows the option won't show up in the driver. I'm fairly confident your problem is exactly that. You could start by removing them and also checking for any hidden devices in there which match either nvidia high definition audio or just high definition audio and remove those as well.

Showing hidden devices in device manager shows "Nvidia Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM)" in sound,video and game controllers but nothing in audio inputs and outputs
