    Headphone picks up sound but microphone is not recognised


    I've had this problem for a while now and I have already done all the recommended fixes like checking if it is disabled, updating and uninstalling sound drivers and going into microphone privacy settings. I have no idea what to do now as I have gone through so many help forums and videos and they all give the same advice which is not working for me. For info my laptop is a Dell G3

    :)

    Microphone still unable to pick up sound from Dragon Speech


    Not a techie at all sorry but follow your general drift which is interesting. I've now got a mike input (USB Pro Sound) but how do you make the connection to the headphone output as there's two separate wires ?

  3. 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 picks up sound but microphone is not recognised

    Microphone picks up headphone audio.

    I've had this problem with 2 different types of headsets where the sound coming to my headphones can also be heard through my mic. It's not that the headphones leak the sound since the mic still picks up sound even if I scroll down the headphone audio
    to the lowest with the volume wheel. There has to be some setting in windows 10 or some problem with windows 10 that makes it think the headphone sound is part of the microphone's recorded sound.
