My turn to ask a silly question. :?

Has anyone experience using Sram Eagle chain ring (12 spd) with a 11 speed chain?

If yes, where there any problems?

    Should be fine with the chainring, but perhaps not the cassette.

    You may well have issues with it rubbing the next larger sprocket at the rear due to the greater width.
