Windows 10: Mic will pick up my voice but not music

A couple of days ago my mic stopped picking up music that I have playing my room, but it will pick up my voice and other sounds with no trouble. Is there some kind of noise reduction thing going on? I have searched through all my sound settings and can't find anything


I'm using a Lenovo Thinkpad T480 running Windows 10 1909, my mic is a Realtek Audio.


Thanks.

Mic not picking up voice

Hi when i try to use my mic on my computer it doesn’t pick up my voice and usually just echos Whatever is playing on my computer of i test it on discord i have tried many things like a new headset but even then nothing changes even looking into the realtek
audio manager

 

Input (mic) Stereo Mix (realtek) not picking up sound through Mic

Acer Predator PH315-52
Windows 10 Home 1909

When I have my sound input set to Stereo Mix (realtek) i can pickup and record or broadcast anything playing internally like youtube or my music files however the external mic wont pick up any sound externally like my voice. Then if I set my input to Microphone Array (realtek) I get the exact opposite result, doesn't pick up internal sound but picks up my external sounds (voice). Any specific settings come to mind to resolve this?
