  1. Windows 11: PC audio mutes audio from communication apps


    Since I switched my PC from windows 10 to windows 11 I have been having this issue and its making the use of my PC for what I need to use it for, near impossible.The audio from meetings in communications app, such as Discord, Teams, Skype, and Zoom get muted when any other PC audio is activated. This can be a YouTube video, a game, a notification even from the communication app itself. Anything audio that is not audio from that specific meeting cuts the audio from the meeting for a period of time. When I check my headset in the Sound Setting where you can access the "Playback", "Recording",

    :)

  2. Skype mutes all Audio

    Hello there,

    If i use Skype with my Bluetooth headset it mutes all other Audio.

    I already selected Do nothing in the Communications Tab. Reinstalled Skype and my Audio Drivers as supposed in ohter Solutions.

    Still the Problem persists. My skype Version is 8.63.0.76.

    How and why is Skype be allowed to manipulate my audio output of other apps anyway?

    This behavior is in no way wanted by me!

    Any suggestions what i can do to stop this?

    Help is appreciated

    Manuel

  3. Audios is completely muted

    Just as about to browse on the internet and watch Twitch and some stuff, I hear nothing with audios and it's dead silence. I thought I have to put mute on, but I hear nothing the rest of it.

    I have to try to fix it (such as put automatic Window Audios, Plug and Play and whatever that is), remove or update audio driver and restart and the list goes on) and it's still not working. I don't know why the speaker and audio are not working. I can tell
    Audios is not responding and whatever that is with configuring has been removed, whether it was a glitch or not. There no way its dead silence despite the speaker is on and hear nothing. Audio is not responding is completely glitches I guarantee and none of
    the stuff is working. Perhaps it all REALTEK driver stops working and glitching out that for sure.

    But seriously, can someone how to fix properly with the SIMPLE step before something is NOT gonna be pretty.
