Windows 10: WH-1000XM5 Connected music but no microphone

Hello,On Windows 10, my wireless bluetooth headset only connects as a music device, and not with microphone says "Connected music" in the bluetooth menu.If I go into sound settings there is a microphone/headset device available "WH-1000XM5 Hands-Free AG Audio", but instead the PC connects to the headphones playback-only device "WH-1000XM5 Stereo". Manually disconnecting the headphones and attempting to connect the headset right click -- connect does not work - just no response from the PC at all.If I unpair the device and repair, it connects to the headphones device again. Same if I delete

Microphone issues

Hi Michael,

Here are the possible reasons why you're getting an error "The microphone did not pick anything up" when using it:

• Incorrect settings (microphone is not set as default device)
  
• Corrupted or outdated driver
  
• Faulty device
  

For us to isolate the issue, we'd like to know the following:

• Were there any changes made to your computer prior to this issue(e.g. Windows updates)?
  
• Have you tried connecting other microphone to your computer?
  
• Have you tried connecting the microphone to the other computer?
  

In the meantime, we suggest running the Recording Audio Troubleshooter to find and repair problems with recording sound. We also suggest checking if your microphone is set as your default recording device. For troubleshooting steps, please see
Geethu B's on this
link.

We're looking forward to your reply.

If the device is still not available as a playback device after pairing, I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works for you:

• Right click the Volume
  icon on the taskbar and choose Sounds.
  
• Under Playback
  tab, right click on an empty space and select Show Disabled Devices
  and Show Disconnected Devices.
  
• Once the above options are enabled, check if the Bluetooth device is listed. If listed, right click on it and
  Enable the device and Set as Default.
