Windows 10: PLZ HELP .... Headphones and microphone not detected

New PC built:
- Windows 10 version 2004
- Motherboard: MSI X470 Gaming Plus
- Ryzen 5 2600
- Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
- Monitor: Samsung UE590

Problem:
My PC only detects my monitor as an audio device. It doesn't show my headset or microphone as and audio device when I connect it in the 3.5mm jack of the motherboard or the front panel. My headset works fine if I connect it to my monitor (however, my monitor doesn't have microphone jack, so I can't use my microphone).

Things I tried to solve the problem:
- Updated BIOS
- Updated Windows
- Reinstalled Windows
- Tried different headset
- Tried using splitter with my headset
- Updated audio driver. I have two audio drivers: High Definition Audio Driver and NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible)
- Tried connecting my monitor with HDMI cable instead of DVI cable

Microphone on Headphones Not Detected (Windows 10)

I have the Astro A10 Headphones, which come with a microphone.

I have done a couple things to try and find the microphone, but it does not show up anywhere, as if the headphones don't have a microphone at all.

I've tried looking in the Recording tab of Sound on the volume mixer (I clicked on Show Disabled/Disconnected devices).

I've also tried looking in Device Manager under Audio Inputs and outputs.

These headphones are in perfect working condition but the microphone on them is not detected at all. In fact, I've had this problem across all headphones that have a built-in microphone. They are never, ever, detected anywhere, on the system.

Please help... My laptop's built in microphone is good, but it picks up the sound of my keyboard and mouse, as well as generally everything, too loudly.

It would be much better to use my headphone's microphone.

 

Microphone on Headphones Not Detected (Windows 10)

I gave you many steps to force the headset microphone to show up. They would take more than an hour to perform, plus the way a forums works is interactively so we don't just give up after the first post but use feedback about your results to suggest more
steps.
