    No earbud or headset will work as both speaker and microphone - used to, doesn't anymore


    Hi,I have Jabra 65t bluetooth earbuds which I've used with Windows 10 and Windows 11. I could connect these and they would work seamlesslyas a speaker and use the microphone in the earbuds to record audio and to have Teams or Zoom calls.This stopped working a few months ago for some reason. This happens with ALL earbuds&nbs

    :)

    Laptop won't detect built-in mic on headsets/earbuds

    I'm running Windows 10 home on a Lenovo Ideapad laptop, and it doesn't detect the mic on any of my headsets/earbuds. I can hear playback fine on my headsets/earbuds, but it can't speak through them, since it insists on using the laptop's internal mic. This results in my typing/mouse clicks all being captured on audio.

    • In sound properties recording tab, I just see "microphone (Realtek high def audio)" and "stereo mix (Realtek high def audio)"
    • In sound properties playback tab, I just see "speakers (Realtek high def audio)", yet I hear audio fine on my headsets/earbuds?
    • In device manager, it doesn't detect a headset either, displays the same list as the recording tab
    So do all 3 of my headsets/earbuds have some kind of "plug and play but stays invisible to the OS" feature? One of them is the default Apple earbuds, I'm 100% sure there's a mic on there and these are brand new, so they aren't broken. Are these not supposed to appear as a "headset" device with the headset icon in sound properties?

    Apple Headset/Microphone not working

    Sound quality issue is often related to people turning their microphone levels too high.

    My microphones don't record my voice as loud as I speak

    Your android headset or your apple headset stop working in January? It's not clear from your answers.

    Your IT people should be able to figure out realtek driver issues and microphone sensitivity/volume issues for your android headset. Figure that out first.

    You are chasing some faraway apple headset issue. Is your IT manager using the same laptop? Is it really the same apple headset? iPhones don't have audio jacks for a while and there are earbuds with volume controls and there are earbuds without. They look mostly the same.
