    Headset with no sound during calls


    Hi,
    I'm using the Sony WH-1000xm4 headphones, I run Win10 20H2 build 19042.630 last updated on a Razer Blade 15 2020.

    On a normal use there is NO PROBLEM at all, the sounds are great, I can hear everything and if I go to playback devices on sound settings I can see the "test" bar on the side working.

    The problem starts when I am on a call I'm using Discord but I have the same problem with skype, zoom or any other call program. People can hear me but I cant hear any sound at all.

    Those are my settings I ticked the same boxes in both the Hands-free version and the normal one in both recording and playback

    If I use the Hands-Free Handset version from the playback devices, the sound is all muffled.
    Now, I tried upgrading/deleting/forgetting/reconnecting device and drivers, I run the troubleshooter no problem found, I tried to change settings on the call program. Nothing worked.
    I read about a solution where I had to Disconnect the Headset device WH-1000XM4 Hands-Free AG Audio from playback, I tried it and solved the problem, I could hear both the call and other sounds BUT doing that disconnected the microphone from the headphones.
    Help me out guys, I'm going crazy.

    :)

    Good surround sound headset

    I know you say you're not that guy, but stepping into the $250+ range really brings a change in build quality that might have you never having to buy another set. Otherwise, getting 6 speakers with decent sound in a headset is hard, and that's what you are asking for, and I have no suggestions, but just a bump up the list. *Stick Out Tongue Headset with no sound during calls :p

    Good surround sound headset

    I appreciate it I was more looking to see if anyone knows something that can fit my bill in that budget. Trust me I know all about the $300 range and even considered audio technica m50x with a condenser mic *Stick Out Tongue Headset with no sound during calls :p

    Headset not playing sounds after mute and unmute

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to answer the following question:


    • Did you connect your headset to any other device and check if the issue re-occurs?
    I suggest you to set your headset as default and check.To do so, please follow the steps below:


    • Type sound in the search bar.

    • Right click on
      headset/microphone
      , click on default.
    If issue persists,

    As you said with other headset it is working fine,so,the issue might occur with your headset only.

    In that case, I recommend you to contact the headset support.
