    Headset not registering in-game


    I'm using an xbox 360 controller / wireless receiver. No cords except for the xbox360 specific headset that plugs into the controller itself.

    It registers on the computer in the sound device settings. I can hear it, the computer says OK you're good to go but in the game it doesn't register at all. I still have a mic with an X through it in Forza Horizon 3. Also fails to work in Black Ops 2 and Crossout.

    :)

    How to get laptop mic working with headphones

    My laptop has a dual headphone/mic jack, and I have a headset with a microphone built into it. Whenever I plug it in, the laptop's in-built microphone is disabled and the headset takes over. I'd like to use the (higher quality) laptop mic instead of the
    (very grainy) headset mic while still having the headphones plugged in. Is there any way of doing this? There appears to be just one recording device called "Microphone (Conexant smart audio device)". When the headphones are unplugged, it registers sounds
    through the laptop mic, and when they're plugged in, it registers sounds through the headset instead, which I don't want.
