I googled my ass off and tried every single option but it does not seem to work...it just keeps on putting the ingame sound through the mic (also Youtube, music, etc.). Anybody knows whatsup? As I said, I really tried everything (i think) so kinda desperate Thanks in advance! Edited January 8, 2020 by Sourtap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First thing is disable everything except realtek then start from there - device manager/audio inputs/out puts Second if you have software installed for it you may need to un-channel all sounds being broadcasted as it is reading/recording everything it is hearing Perhaps I can help in other ways but would need system information such as OS etc and maybe we can meet up in teamspeak Edited January 9, 2020 by loaderXI BUDMAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can try to be on teamspeak late in the night for me and try to catch you online hopefully. Otherwise I'll just return this headset and buy another one (the one I originally had). Thanks in advance! loaderXI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than muck about just swap it, have you tried speaking into headset and see if it acts as a microphone? Sourtap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with the mic and sound, just the fac that anyone in discord can hear what happens on my pc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
