Opera GX Sound not working after every update

So, since quite some time I have the following problem:
I am using Opera GX on a normal basis, watching youtube videos and whatever, then one day, I get the Opera GX startup screen (indicating that it updated, which it also tells me by opening the update tab). After that Update occured, I have literally no sound at all from Opera GX.
I work in IT, so I obviously tried debugging the issue multiple times, but Opera literally doesnt even appear in the windows sound mixer, which leads me to believe, that the update causes some issue, where it does not register any audio outputs anymore on startup.
My temporary solution this far has been to simply run the Opera GX installer once again (I generally download the newest one, so the update stays). Keep in mind that I dont uninstall Opera, I only run the installer, but that still fixes the Issue.
This solution does work, but it is annoying to do this every single time an update happens, and I would love to get some Ideas on what I can do to permanently fix this.
Thanks in advance.

@playwolf Hi, I also get this same issue and the only fix is like you said to just re-install it. its getting quite annoying now, been happening for a few months but can't seem to find anything about it anywhere. I did submit a bug ticket, and was told they are aware of the bug and that they are working on it, but it seems it doesn't affect everyone as I'm sure they would have pushed a fix out by now.
