    audio glitches out when my microphone is active.


    Ive been using a headset that uses both USB and bluetooth. I recently lost the USB so i started using bluetooth as that is my only option to make my headset work, but after i started using bluetooth my audio gets bugged/glitched out when my microphone is active. ex:- discord or any other game i play or even zoom. I recently bought airpods and i tried to connecting it to my laptop to see if its a problem with my headset but no, it does the same thing to the airpods as well. Can someone help? also i run on win 11.Thankyou.

    :)

    Microphone issues

    Hi Michael,

    Here are the possible reasons why you're getting an error "The microphone did not pick anything up" when using it:

    • Incorrect settings (microphone is not set as default device)
    • Corrupted or outdated driver
    • Faulty device

    For us to isolate the issue, we'd like to know the following:

    • Were there any changes made to your computer prior to this issue(e.g. Windows updates)?
    • Have you tried connecting other microphone to your computer?
    • Have you tried connecting the microphone to the other computer?

    In the meantime, we suggest running the Recording Audio Troubleshooter to find and repair problems with recording sound. We also suggest checking if your microphone is set as your default recording device. For troubleshooting steps, please see
    Geethu B's on this
    link.

    We're looking forward to your reply.
