Try my clever FFmpeg-GUI.
Convert the video with this settings:

and the audio with this settings:

Then mux the 2 resulting files to your final mp4.

I do not see where to choose mux as mp4? There is no dropdown for container like here https://www.videohelp.com/software/clever-FFmpeg-GUI

Load first your video file, then your audio file, then set the desired output, then set the container. Click on multiplex, done.

Do you see Container?
You can't multiplexing anything without setting an output file.

[David Banner]

No. Container not showing. I do set output folder

[ProWo]

No. Container not showing. I do set output folder

Output folder and output file are two different things.
Restart clever Ffmpeg-GUI, load your file, Main, Multiplexing.
Set your Video track file, then set your Audio track file, then your Subtitle track file, if any.
Then click on Target file, confirm the selected file name or choose another one, click ok in the Browser Window and you'll see the picture i send above.
Select mp4 as container, click on Multiplex. DONE!
