Windows 10: My computer isnt registering that i plugged in my microphone

I used my microphone last week on a discord call and it worked just fine then suddenly today my pc is not registering that i even have a mic plugged in. it keeps trying to use my webcam mic. I went to settings to try and switch it back to my mic and my mic just is not even on my devices list anymore. I tried a couple different ways to trouble shoot why it wasn't registering. I updated everything on my pc including my drivers but it did nothing. I've tried everything i can think of to try and fix this problem but it still just does not register that i have my mic plugged in.

Headset/Mic is plugged in and registered by the computer, but no sound is being picked up by the microphone.

Hi,

Since you have done some troubleshooting steps to get your microphone working on your headset, we suggest that you remove all the speakers connected to your computer. Then try again using your microphone, put it on the front panel to figure out if it's going
to work. We'd also like to know if you have tried using another device with a microphone to isolate the issue.

Do update us if it does make any difference.

Kind regards.

 

Computer microphone won't work when headset is plugged in

My computer's microphone is functional if nothing is plugged in. When I connect a wired headset, however, the microphone does not work. The headset has a microphone, and it works properly on other devices, but not on my computer. Moreover, this issue persists with other headsets- they work on other devices but not when plugged in to my computer.

I think the issue may be that Windows does not recognize my headset as an audio input device? When I plug it in and look at input devices, only the default computer microphone (Realtek(R) Audio) is listed. This is the same input that is available when no headset is plugged in.

Can anyone recommend a fix? I have ensured that all drivers are updated, so that's not the issue. The microphone is also not muted, the headset connection is secure (audio output works as expected- using it as a microphone is the only issue)
