same problem with you, M1 pro of 16inch macbook, 12.2.1, china
Astonished by stupid files on demand, after trying hard, files still could be sync properly, so I decided to go back from version 22 to version 21.
Version 21 was hard to download, and I found version 21.150 in the iso package of office for mac 2022

And all the things will be in the right way.
