  1. Whenever my pc lags it can't detect my headset/headset mic


    Alright so every 4-7 hours after booting my pc up, I'm just minding my own business playing games then suddenly my pc just lags.

    I can't do anything for about 30 seconds, I get disconnected from what I was playing. not crash

    then my headset audio/microphone stops working and then switches to my PC's loudspeakers, it always happens quite randomly.

    It gets fixed whenever I reboot my pc by just turning it off and on, not turning off the power.

    but my question is how to fix my audio/microphone, or if I can't how to fix that stupid lag because It's really annoying.

    my entire pc is fully functional after the lag. except mic/audio

    I use a Razer Kraken headset.

    My other things do work like USB replugging my headset in doesn't do anything It doesn't detect it going in/out after the lag

    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?

    Headset mic

    PC Specs will help us help you.

    What is the brand/model of the headset mic combo?

    What front panel audio jack(s) do you have? Some are only mic or only headset, some can be either mic or headset whichever is plugged in and some are combination headset/mic.

    Headset mic

    Depends on the specs of your hardware, you have not given enough detail.

    PCs are normally separate Headphone and Mic sockets.
    Laptops a Combo socket (TRRS).

    Headsets usually come with adapters to cater for both scenarios.

    My headset has a Combo plug (TRRS), and an adapter for separate Headphones and Mic sockets.

    You can plug the Headset Combo plug in to a Headphone only socket, but the Mic won't work. there is no second R contact.
