With either the 2023-03-18 or 2023-03-13 release, the onboard ethernet NIC of my Quartz64 Model A shows as disconnected (but present) in ESXi-ARM (initially with v1.11, also with v1.12).
The only way I found to get the onboard NIC to work again was to downgrade back to the earlier 2022-07-20 release.
