Media Player troubleshooting

hi, I have installed the Hass.Agent (2) on my PC and the forked integration on HA via HACS. I have been trying to get media player to work. My PC shows up as a media player in Home Assistant, but I cannot get it to actually play any audio. I have tried both TTS and playing a media file stored in home assistant. both tts and the file play fine through the browser, but when I select the pc media player as the output, it accepts the command (green checkmark) but nothing happens. Nothing in the logs either. Strangely, the gui media controls in home assistant like resume and pause do work if something is already playing on my pc. Any assistance would be very appreciated!
