Windows 10: Headset being detected as headphones

Device is an Acer Nitro 5 running Windows 11. I THINK this is the headset I am using https://store.acer.com/en-gb/acer-nitro-headset-blackIn device manager, my headset 3.5mm jack with a microphone on it is only being detected as "Headphones". It doesn't appear in the input section, only my laptop's built in mic Microphone array appears, which I do not want to

Headphones Not Detected

Wasn't sure what topic to put this under.

Windows 10 refuses to detect my headphones from my headset. The mic is fine. The computer even recognizes when I plug the headphones of the headset in. But it refuses to detect them. I can go into my Sound in Control Panel all day, and there will NEVER be any
headphones in that list. So, no, I cannot click headphones, just making that clear before someone suggests clicking on headphones.

How do I force Windows 10 to detect the headphones that I have plugged in, so that they will work? The jack is working fine. When I plug them in it gives me the pop-up letting me know that I plugged something into the jack. But that's the end of it. It will
not detect the headphones. Nothing comes out of them. There are no headphones in the Sound list. There is nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Why does it register something is plugged in and then refuse to detect it?

Someone please figure out why Windows 10 simply cannot detect headphones and help me fix this so I can use my headset.

 

Sound control panel issues (headset detection)

Just built a pc for my step daughter. Audio works fine when outputted to a display with speakers built in with no problems. But when attempting to use the speaker and headphone ports (either front panel, or directly from mobo in the back), the computer does not detect them (doesnt detect the headphone speakers, microphone seems to be detected but will not register any input to the microphone). It doesn't just seem to not detect them though, its detection is completely backwards. When I look in the sound control panel without any headphones plugged in, windows seems to think there are speakers (aside from the display with speakers built in)? And as soon as I plug in the headphones, It switches to saying disconnected. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers to no avail (tried different revisions of realtek audio drivers, from realtek website and from motherboard manufacturers website). I am absolutely stumped. I know the headset works, it works fine on my pc and my daughters nintendo switch. Here is a video of the sound control panel and its behaviour when plugging in the headset. Behaves the same whether i use front panel or back. Motherboard is B365M-HDV
