Foreign dignitaries can receive 21 gun salutes when visiting installations... such as Arlington National Cemetery. But what's the difference between a presidential salute and a foreign dignitary's salute?
3+1 gun battery configuration, 3 second intervals
And here is Jordan's Secretary of Defense visiting
2+1 gun battery configuration, 9 second intervals
2+1 gun battery configuration, 9 second intervals
POTUS always gets the 3+1@3sec configuration. So not only was Biden denied the salute following his oath at the 'inauguration', but Biden was received at Arlington National Cemetery as though he were a visiting foreign dignitary.
The Military does not recognize Biden
And that means literally everything is in play and ongoing

Well here is Obama visiting 3+1 gun battery configuration, 3 second intervals
And here is Jordan's Secretary of Defense visiting 2+1 gun battery configuration, 9 second intervals

A) Biden did not receive his salute immediately following his oath as with every other president
B) Biden's salute at Arlington matches that of a foreign dignitary
The Salute at Arlington for a foreign dignitary such as the Defense Secretary of Jordan was also 21 shots, 2+1 guns at 9 second intervals
Biden at Arlington: 21 shots, 2+1 guns, 9 second interval @14min
While Obama entering the cemetery receives the proper 21 shots, 3+1guns and the 3 second interval.
For reference:
Both the President as well as Foreign Sovereigns receive 21 gun salutes, but the how matters
Biden at Arlington: 21 shots, 2+1 guns, 9 second interval @14min
Table 3-1, Both the President as well as Foreign Sovereigns receive 21 gun salutes, so Arlington is neither here nor there. What is important is that:
A) Biden did not receive his salute immediately following his oath as with every other president
B) Biden's salute at Arlington matches that of a foreign dignitary
The Salute at Arlington for a foreign dignitary such as the Defense Secretary of Jordan was also 21 shots, 2+1 guns at 9 second intervals
