Windows 10: Problem with Headset Accessory Microphone: Loud, sharp ringing noise during playback after...

Hi all!

I recently bought a new Sennheiser Momentum earphone and I connected it to my Surface Book 2 Windows 10.0.18362. Sound when playing Youtube videos is amazing. But when I tried to record an audio in the Camera App, and replay the audio, my voice can be heard but it's accompanied by this sharp awful high pitched ringing that gets louder when my voice gets louder.

I don't think it's a problem with my headset as this issue persisted across 3 different models of earphones. I thought it was the earphones problem but I'm strongly suspecting that it has to do with my Surface Book 2 now...

Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm so stressed out by this! Thank you :

:)

 

Realtek loud noise

Try to boot Ubuntu from dvd/flash. If sound codec will not work, then it may be a hardware failure; otherwise (after rebooting to Windows) uninstall all Realtek software from Programs and features, reboot, system should install generic sound drivers itself. If they work, try to reinstall Realtek drivers.


Edit: After listening and analyzing your sound sample, I suspect some parasitic signal penetrating into your sound subsystem - there are two primary frequencies: 266Hz and 4533Hz (multiplier is 17). Please check that your input jack connector isn't dirty or damaged, preferably using analog headset. Also check and clean inside of your laptop if possible.





Furthermore, Realtek codec driver has three sliders in microphone settings: Recording volume, Playback volume and Microphone boost (translated). The last is hidden under button. Make sure they are not set to Maximum.

 

Loud buzzing noise through microphone

Whenever I have my microphone plugged in, it makes this noise:
Vocaroo | Voice message

While it is possible to hear my voice if I talk, it's almost impossible due to the noise.
It's not my headset that's the problem (I've tried it on other devices with no issues), but it's an attitude one Tunguska 2.0.
The microphone still somehow picks up some noise even when it's unplugged.
The noise sounds like whenever you give a speaker power and then touch the jackstick(?), so I'm guessing it's a faulty soundcard somehow, but I may be wrong. I also have to re-plug my headset on every startup. I'm using the free version of Driver Booster by IObit, so it shouldn't be due to an outdated driver.

Thanks for any help in advance, just ask if there's any information you need.

EDIT

If I unplug the microphone jack and go into controlpanel>sound and open the properties of the microphone and turn on the "listen to this device" it still makes noise. It also doesn't disappear from the list of recording devices whenever I unplug it. It's a relatively recent problem, it just sort of happened. I'll try to find another microphone to test with.

EDIT

Well, while I don't have another microphone with a jack to test with, I did plug a ruined USB headset in, and there were no problems with the mic. It doesn't matter whether I plug my microphone in from the front or the back, as long as it's a jack it'll make noise. It also seems like the buzzing is something it lays on top/beneath any other mic input since my mic does pick up my voice, though it's very difficult to make out.

EDIT

There are times where the microphone simply doesn't register in controlpanel>sound.

EDIT

Well, I decided to open up my pc and see if I could figure something out, even with my meagre pc experience, and found that I don't have a sound card, but instead just the motherboard. My motherboard is a good, like, 5-6 years at this point, so I'll just be getting a new pc, since majority of my parts are just as old. Thanks for the help, I'm guessing it's the motherboard being faulty do to use.

 

Realtek loud noise

Hello,

I have Realtek Microphone in Recording settings of sound and Realtek Digital Output in Playback.

I did not make any updates for my Windows 10 64-bit for last few weeks or changes in settings, and this problem stats when I start my computer today.

I tried to use Skype, but it turned out that my microphone stopped working, my voice is not heard. Then I tried to record voice with sound forge and same here, it should be noted that I do not get just an empty track with zero sound, record just does not happen. It is different things. But most horrible thing I got now is a very loud noise which almost hurts your ears. Noise occurs if I'm trying record something, answer to the skype, and also I got some low clicking sound of very loud short sound each time I'm trying to on video or audio, or switch it with timeline.

I've updated all drivers in Device Manager:

Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)
Realtek Digital Output (Realtek High Definition Audio)
Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)
Stereo Mix (Realtek High Definition Audio)

and it says the best driver software for your device is already installed.

So I have no idea what to do. Can't get if it is system problem or something wrong with hardware.
