Re: sentyeh HRD 1x11 compatibility 12 speed chain should work on 11 speed components (I did it for a while on my gravel bike). It should even give you crisper shifting on 11 speed.

Re: sentyeh HRD 1x11 compatibility i actually had an issue with the 11speed narrow wide chainring being too wide for the 12 seed chain.  it would not sit all the way down in the chainring.

Re: sentyeh HRD 1x11 compatibility
Was thinking something along these lines too. I was looking at the wolf tooth that claims to be compatible with a range of chains. Any aliexpress chainrings that known to be good or maybe I should just switch to a ali crankset all together.
chain compatibility is either SRAM 12 speed (and their are some caveats, ie some SRAM 12 speed are not compatible with others) or everybody else ie 9,10,11 and every non SRAM 12 speed chain has the same pitch and roller size, the only  difference is width via plate thickness.

Modern SRAM cranks use an eight bolt direct mount, older SRAM cranks and most AliExpress cranks use a three bolt direct mount. So plenty  of three bolt direct mount chain rings on AliExpress, there are eight bolt bolt direct mount chain rings available, but tend to be premium brands.

Other alternative is buy a direct mount power meter spider, they are available in both three and eight bolt models. Then pick a chain ring that matches your BCD or just buy a Magene P505 crank and nottt the SRAM.

I would avoid the P505 PM / crank combo sine it has a proprietary interface and you will never be able to use the PM on another crank if you want to mix things up.

Did you have issues with the cassette?

The front crankset has the 40T x-sync chainring that comes with sram rival crankset 12sp. The cassette however is a sunshine hg hub 11 speed cassette. I was thinking of trying a 12spd gx eagle chain and seeing how that works with the 11 speed cassette.

No the cassette was not the issue.  it was just the chain ring and only the wide tooth was causing the issue.  swapping to a 12 speed specific N/W chainring solved the issue.
