Windows 10: Microphone picks up laptop audio, not voice after windows update

I’ve been using a wired headset on my laptop for a year without a problem but after a windows update I had today, my microphone only picks up whenever I type and not when I speak. In the control panel, it’s the only microphone I have selected and enabled (it’s realtek). I’ve tried restarting my pc, disconnecting then reconnecting the device back into the headphone jack but I’m still having the same issue.

Microphone only picks up audio from headphones?

I currently have a pair of razer kraken pro v2's which are plugged into my computer via a headphone splitter. My computer detects my headphones just fine (audio working and all), but when it comes to using the microphone it doesn't seem to pick up my voice at all and only picks up audio coming out through the headphones.

(EDIT): My microphone can now pick up my voice, but it still picks up sounds from my computer. Any way to fix this this?

 

Windows 10 microphone input on LG Gram picking up on internal audio

Hi ,

My laptop microphone is picking up audio from my internal pc E.G Chrome playing youtube. If i plug in my headset, and mute my headset with a physical button, launch voice recorder, play a youtube video and begin recording, the recording seems to pick up
youtubes video audio. And its driving me nuts. I have 3 headsets that I tested with. All of them still produces the same problem so its not my headset issue. Interestingly, if i mute my laptop speaker/headset while recording and having a youtube video playing
in the background, the audio picked up by my microphone stops. Unmuting my laptop causes the the audio from youtube to be picked up by my laptop again. So this allows me to confirm that windows 10 itself is the problem. My windows is Version
10.0.18363 Build 18363

 

Microphone does not pick up voice

My headset microphone is completely functional; however, my PC cannot pick up my voice. If I blow loudly in the microphone, the green bar on the sound control panel will light up but not when I talk normally. My drivers are fully updated and my microphone
levels are maxed out.
