  1. Headset detected as speakers, therefore cant use microphone ?


    I recently bought the razer kraken headset, audio is all well and stuff, i plugged it in the back in the red and green jacks. The thing is, the mic doesn't work? Is that something I can fix? The PC detects the headset as speakers, so it doesn't show in the mic options..Please help. I really want to use the mic on the headset but I don't know how.

    :)

    This is what i see in device manager. Im not sure if the Speakers/Headphones (Realtek High Definition Audio) is the one your saying to disable, as that is what is default in playback devices in the sounds panel.

    Setting Stereo Mix as the default recording device and disabling everything else still didnt get the mic working, even when the headset is plugged into the microphone only audio port or the mic + sound audio port.

    laptop not detecting headset microphone

    I recently bought a new headset with a microphone and I can hear audio through the headset but
    my mic is not detected and it is still using my default Realtek computer microphone.

    I've tried looking for hidden microphones but there are none.
    I've re-installed my Realtek HD Audio driver.

    But nothing seems to work.

    What should I do to fix this?
