I am having issues with saving my choice for the Start up sound on my Mac. Every time I un-check the "Play sound on start-up" option in the Sounds section and I then close the System preferences menu and when I open it up again the option still shows as checked. How do I save my choice for this option?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.3

Then you cannot reset the NVRAM as there is no means on the M1 Macs.
Hopefully, this issue will be resolved in the next Big Sur update. I'm waiting for the fix as well.

Try resetting NVRAM and then see if the changes stick.
