I assume that your issue is caused by a broken update. If, for instance, you turned off your Wi-Fi, PC, or experienced a power cut while a background update to the Oculus software was ongoing, there's a chance you may have corrupted a file.
If this is the case, you can easily fix this by repairing or reinstalling the Oculus software.
To repair (fast option): To repair your Oculus software, follow these steps:
Open your PC settings.
Navigate to 'Apps.'
Find the Oculus app in the app list (you may want to search for it).
Click on 'Oculus,' then go to 'Properties.'
The Oculus app should start and show a repair option. Click it and wait.
To reinstall: To reinstall the Oculus software, visit this link: Oculus Setup and click on the 'Download' button. If it tells you that you already have the Oculus software installed, there should be a button to 'Uninstall and Reinstall' the software. Click it and wait for the download to complete.
If you've followed these steps correctly, you should be able to determine if the software was causing your audio problems.
With a bit of luck, this might resolve your issue. I hope you can figure out your problem quickly. Good luck, and have a great day!

Thanks! That repair option worked for me too. I'd just gone from Quest 2 to Quest 3 and doing that repair got the audio back for PCVR games
