    Front Headphone jack not picking up Microphone


    Hello, Today I turned on my HP Pc and my Mic isn't even being detected by Windows, The mic is attached to my headphones and the headphone audio does work, it's just the Microphone that doesn't I plugged it into the back microphone and audio ports using a splitter and now it works but I find it more convenient to use the front port. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks.

    :)

    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?

    Headphone Jack does not recognize headset microphone

    Hello,

    Since a couple days the 3.5mm headphone jack of my computer does not recognize my headset microphone. When its plugged in the audio output works, but it says there is no microphone connected. It does recognize the headphones (audio output).

    I already tried all of the following troubleshooting tips:

    • The headset works on other devices (Laptop with Windows 11, PlayStation)
    • Adjusting privacy settings.
    • Enabling microphone in device manager (however this is not possible because it says its not connected)
    • Reinstalling the device in control panel.
    • Updating drives, windows etc.
    • Other headsets also have the same problem on that port.

    Headphone Jack Splitter Fix?

    Hi,

    Can you please is the Microphone is listed in the device manager after you connected to jack or not.

    Step 1:

    Go to Device Manager & expand Audio Inputs and Outputs

    Step 2:

    If Microphone is listed Select Microphone and right-click then select Enable Device

    Let me know the status after performing the above.

    Regards
