  1. Headset Output not detected but Input is working just fine.


    My computer won't detect an Output device for my headset. The Input device works just fine, a little quiet but it's still being detected. The Output works fine with normal earbuds so idk why it wouldnt be detecting the output for my headset. I just got this setup for Christmas and the only thing not working is my headset audio. Anything would be better than nothing.

    It seems the troubleshooter was not able to resolve your concern. For us to resolve this, need to uninstall and re-install the audio driver of your computer. Before you perform the steps, you need to insert your headset. After inserting the headset, follow

    Playback detecting Input Devices & Recording detecting Output Devices

    Hello!

    Today, I was playing SCP: Secret Laboratory. After I finished, I went and made tea. When I came back much later to play some more, I found that the in-game voice chat was not working for me; my microphone was not transmitting in-game.
    Looking into my Steam settings, I found that all my input devices were actually my output devices, and all my output devices were actually input devices. I initially thought this was an issue with Steam, so I restarted Steam and my PC.
    However, when the problem did not resolve, I looked to my sound settings and found that even in there, my playback devices detected inputs as outputs and recording devices detected outputs as inputs.

    How am I able to fix this problem?

    The VoiceMeeter inputs and outputs are from a sound managing device called VoiceMeeter Banana that I installed to allow for the creation of virtual line ins.

    No input device found, output device not working.

    I've only received this computer today, and so far the default input and output devices have not been working at all. With only the output (not input) device on my headset working.
