  1. Can't get my Headset audio, Microphone, and PS4 controller to all work at the same time


    So everything works fine without using a Controller on PC(laptop), However with a few scenarios, something just doesn't work. I'm fairly noobish when it comes to PC so please bare with me.

    When I plug my controller and headset into my PC. My microphone on my headset does not work at all.

    If I plug my headset into my PS4 controller, my audio on my entire PC just doesn't work, or plays from my laptop speakers.

    When I connect my controller through bluetooth, I get no input in the game I'm trying to play (Apex Legends)

    Headset microphone (with audio splitter) not working

    My Acer Predator (Helios 300) laptop has a singular audio port, which I use with my headset that has a separate microphone and headphone cable. I have used an audio splitter to get around this issue for a while now, and it has worked perfectly fine. Normally
    when I would plug the splitter in, a prompt would appear asking what type of device was just plugged in, options were headphones, speakers, microphone, headset, and one or two other options that I don't remember because I never used them. I would select "headset"
    and it would work just fine. Recently, something changed. This prompt no longer appears, and my computer no longer acknowledges the microphone on my headset, instead using the default internal microphone. The headphones still play audio like normal, but I
    have found no way to get the microphone working.

    If I just plug the microphone chord into the audio jack, it still does not work, and the computer refuses to play audio.

    So far I have tried:

    • Uninstalling and re-installing the audio drivers (multiple times)
    • Updating windows
    • Running the audio troubleshooters (Both for playing audio and recording)
    • Checking for updates to Dolby
    • Scanning for hardware changes in device manager
    • Disabling the default microphone
    None of these have done anything.

    I'm really at a loss here. I consider myself pretty computer savvy but nothing I've tried has gotten me anywhere.

    Apple Headset/Microphone not working

    Sound quality issue is often related to people turning their microphone levels too high.

    My microphones don't record my voice as loud as I speak

    Your android headset or your apple headset stop working in January? It's not clear from your answers.

    Your IT people should be able to figure out realtek driver issues and microphone sensitivity/volume issues for your android headset. Figure that out first.

    You are chasing some faraway apple headset issue. Is your IT manager using the same laptop? Is it really the same apple headset? iPhones don't have audio jacks for a while and there are earbuds with volume controls and there are earbuds without. They look mostly the same.

  4. Can't get my Headset audio, Microphone, and PS4 controller to all work at the same time

    Microphone audio from headset connected to controller not being sent to Windows.

    So I'm trying to use my Xbox Stereo headset on my PC, right? I've got my headset connected to my Xbox One controller, I'm getting game audio through the controller, but my microphone isn't working. No one in my game or the Xbox PC app can hear me when I'm
    in a party. I can use the headset just fine on Xbox One but for some reason just the microphone doesn't work on PC. My computer recognizes the input device attached to my controller but it doesn't accept any audio. Any way to get the microphone to work?

    I've got my controller connected to my computer via USB cable and I've tried using a headset adapter and just going through the audio cable plug on the controller. Same results. No microphone.
