try disabling secure boot for the vm (in the ovmf menu, you can access that when pressing esc during the boot screen)

i thought this was a windows 11 disk? why is grub booting?
 
are you sure you're passing through the right disk?
can you post the output of
Code: 
qm config ID
lsblk
mount

oh could you also post the output of
Code: 
ls -lh /dev/disk/by-id
(i forgot to mention that one)

i'd check the boot options from the ovmf menu, maybe there is an old grub bootloader on that disk or something like that
(you can access it by pressing 'esc' on vm boot)

yeah, there are no efi boot entries there, because they are saved in the efi of your host (the guest has seperate 'efivars' saved in the 'efidisk')
you could extract them on the host with 'efibootmgr' and insert them in the efivars of the vm by booting a livecd with efibootmgr

I read this article but not sure how exactly to extract efivars and then insert them in the VM. Can I do this directly from proxmox? Also where to find live cd with efibootmgr?
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Efibootmgr/en
 
@dcsapak I fixed it by adding new boot option from ovmf menu pointing to boot EFI file on the disk in EFI/Windows folder and now it boots perfect, but now I have another issue. I passthrough GPU but there is no HDMI sound, can't detect my TV as sound input device. How to fix this?

great that you fixed this issue, but maybe open another thread with the new problem (when too many topics are mixed it's harder to follow a thread)
