Windows 10: Headset microphone speaks to me but to no one else, help do what?

Hi folks, I originally wanted to solve another problem and deleted the microphone at audio endpoint in the device manager.

The result -> I hear myself talking, but in Teamspeak I'm dead

So, I sit jz already for 3 hours to solve this, have the hook "Use this device as playback source" of course not activated and still I come to no solution.

I have even already de- and re-installed the audio driver.

I thank you in advance for your help!

Audio playback from microphone to headset - I want to hear myself speak

Looking for assistance this.

I cannot hear myself on my headphones when I speak into my headset. The microphone is a USB device and the headset is plugged into the computer through the 3.5mm jack. Both devices are high quality, and otherwise function normally. However, I am now working
from home and doing a lot of VTC sessions. When I cannot hear myself speak I feel like no one else can either and it throws me off. I fly as a hobby so I am used to being able to hear myself on the radio when speaking.

I have tried several methods suggested by Windows help, but so far no success.

Thanks,

James
