Windows 10: Microphone picks up audio from PC, not my voice.

Problem:

I'm trying to talk to my friends using a voice chat app on my pc but it just plays stuff from the game i'm playing or video i'm watching, not my voice.


Notes:

New headset https://www.argos.co.uk/product/3106293


Headset has one pin for both microphone and audio

PC requires separate pins for both microphone and audio

For that reason I've bought an audio splitter


dont know what else to put

:)

 

Microphone only picks up audio from headphones?

I currently have a pair of razer kraken pro v2's which are plugged into my computer via a headphone splitter. My computer detects my headphones just fine (audio working and all), but when it comes to using the microphone it doesn't seem to pick up my voice at all and only picks up audio coming out through the headphones.

(EDIT): My microphone can now pick up my voice, but it still picks up sounds from my computer. Any way to fix this this?

 

Microphone does not pick up voice

My headset microphone is completely functional; however, my PC cannot pick up my voice. If I blow loudly in the microphone, the green bar on the sound control panel will light up but not when I talk normally. My drivers are fully updated and my microphone
levels are maxed out.
