There are so many vendors and driver choices that it’s hard to know anything for certain, just that this is an area to explore when having problems.

ps For quite a few years I have been using only the Intel chips with their own video, and I don’t have a separate (often noisy) graphics card. BIAB certainly doesn’t need a good graphics card, and neither do the DAW or other digital audio editing programs I use.

It may be unique to my music computer. I have BiaB on two computers, one for the Internet and my off-line music and photography computer. My Internet computer has both RealTek and Nvidia audio, however the Nvidia is a much less expensive card than on my music computer. BiaB works perfectly on it with both audio drivers active. My music computer has RealTek, Nvidia, and Win 10 Roland Octa-Capture, my audio interface, drivers. On it I have to deactivate the RealTek and Nvidia audio drivers for BiaB style demos to work. Note I need a better graphic card for my photographic work, one that is also quiet. You are correct in that music programs usually don't need super graphic card unless, maybe, they are also adding video: don't know that for sure.

Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
