Windows 10: Headset microphone not being recognized W11

I have a HyperX Cloud Stinger Core, plug P3, that works perfectly fine on my Xbox Series controller so the problem is not on the headset, but when I try to use it on my Acer Aspire 5 A515-45 the mic is not recognized. I've tried to update and use others drivers, it didn't work. Please, any solution? also, don't bother to tell me "have you checked it is correctly plugged?" or stuff that simpleIt seems to me that is like Windows is forcing to use "Group of Microphones" anyway, when it should separate what is internal mic of the laptop and what is microphone of headset.

Computer won't recognize headset microphone

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.

I would assume I am using the Dell provided Realtek sound Drivers. Im not entirely sure though. Heres what I see in the same spot as your two images. The microphone that is disabled is the inbuilt microphone next to the webcam.

And i think i just worked it out. I went into the alienware audio program. I was looking around for microphone related stuff and stumbled across this in advanced:




The check box at the bottom was not checked, so it was not asking me anything when plugging in my headset. when i clicked on the port that was not grayed out, this appeared:





And once i chose headset (with microphone) and tested it out in some of my programs that i can use voice in, it was working.

Thanks for all the help leading up to this!!!
