My own solution to no audio on Steamvr and wanting to tear my hair out. I had no Oculus sound device and no steam stream services to begin with.

1. Had steam and steamvr installed already.

2. Installed Meta App onto PC. This allowed the Oculus headset to show up in sound devices. Still no audio.

3. Uninstalled SteamVr then steam.

4. Installed Steam then Steamvr. Sound started working on games and I notice steamstreaming was in audio devices.
