Media Player in Taskbar above Volume Control and Internet Options

I've been having trouble finding the setting to turn off the media player shortcut when you click on the internet options & volume control. Does anybody know how to turn this display off?

 

 

Thank you plenty in advance!

    1. Click on the Start menu and select the gear icon (Settings) or press Windows + I to open Settings.
    2. Navigate to System Settings:
    3. Go to Notifications & Actions:
    4. Turn off Notifications from Specific Apps:
    5. Look for the media player app that's causing the controls to appear (this could be Groove Music, Spotify, etc.).
    6. Toggle off the notifications for this app.

    Not a Windows 11 user myself, but try disabling the 'Control media via keyboard, headset, or virtual interface' option under General > Browsing.
