    Why is my computer can't detect my Headset's microphone but can detect the speaker?


    Good day, Microsoft! I also encountered the same issue with regards on "Realtek Audio Driver". Wherein, my pc couldn't detect any surrounding sound. FYI, I've just bought a brand-new pair of headsets. As I plugged the headsets, It's detected as "speaker", and the microphone is not plugged in. I have done several tutorials from YouTube, such as installing the old driver from Device Manager, Updating the SM Bus Controller and PCI Simple Communications Controller I found nothing on SMBus because the intel couldn't detect itself, and even roll back so that I could test the old drivers and doubt

  2. laptop not detecting headset microphone

    I recently bought a new headset with a microphone and I can hear audio through the headset but
    my mic is not detected and it is still using my default Realtek computer microphone.

    I've tried looking for hidden microphones but there are none.
    I've re-installed my Realtek HD Audio driver.

    But nothing seems to work.

    What should I do to fix this?

    Why is my computer can't detect my Headset's microphone but can detect the speaker?

    Sound control panel issues (headset detection)

    Just built a pc for my step daughter. Audio works fine when outputted to a display with speakers built in with no problems. But when attempting to use the speaker and headphone ports (either front panel, or directly from mobo in the back), the computer does not detect them (doesnt detect the headphone speakers, microphone seems to be detected but will not register any input to the microphone). It doesn't just seem to not detect them though, its detection is completely backwards. When I look in the sound control panel without any headphones plugged in, windows seems to think there are speakers (aside from the display with speakers built in)? And as soon as I plug in the headphones, It switches to saying disconnected. I have tried reinstalling audio drivers to no avail (tried different revisions of realtek audio drivers, from realtek website and from motherboard manufacturers website). I am absolutely stumped. I know the headset works, it works fine on my pc and my daughters nintendo switch. Here is a video of the sound control panel and its behaviour when plugging in the headset. Behaves the same whether i use front panel or back. Motherboard is B365M-HDV
