Windows 10: Realtek mic picking up output

For some reason realtek took a liking to my output sounds and felt the need to pick it up. It's annoying especially during calls. I deactivated stereomix, switched both splitter and headset, set communication settings to mute and activated splitting on the console. My mobo is a x570 carbon wifi with the latest bios & drivers

Muted mic picking up sound in game

Hi JonPaul,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



The issue could be because of the internal mic picking up sound even when the external device is pluuged in. If you have the RealTek HD Audi Manager installed on the machine, I would suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works for
you.

• Open RealTek HD Audio Manager and go to the
  Advanced tab.
  
• Check the boxes Separate all input jacks as independent input devices
  and Mute the internal output device, when external headphone is plugged in,
  and hit OK.
  
• Exit RealTek HD Audio Manager, restart the machine and see if the issue persists.
  

Regards,

 

I been having trouble with the volume in the mic settings. I tried all I know please help.

This is the three devices that are under the "Sounds, video, and game controllers" tab:

• AMD High Definition Audio Device
• CyberLink Webcam Virtual Drivers
• Realtek High Definition Audio

Under the "Audio input and output" tab:

• Mic in at front panel (black) (Realtek High Definition Audio)
• Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)
• Realtek HD Output 2nd output (Realtek High Definition Audio)
• Speaker/HD (Realtek High Definition Audio)

I use microphone headset to talk to people while playing an online game. The program I use is "Ventrilo". I tried the steps you posted and the mic volume is still muting automatically.

 

Conexant mic pick up device output sound

I am using Windows 10, default conexant smart audio HD. My mic is picking up the laptop output sound even with my headphone plugged in. This means that my friends can hear my youtube music whenever we chat online. I have tried to disable stereo mix, but
it doesnt work. Is this problem specific to this Conexant thing? Many other forums talks about Realtek and they seem to get their problems solved easily. Im posting it here because I think microsoft should be responsible for this default driver.
