Hello TatorMenard,

Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

Based on the description, the suspension was already completed and you are still having issue. Let us check and see on what we can do to help address your concern in a timely manner.

We would like to ask few questions to help us isolate the issue further.

1. Do you mean you are having issue with party chat in which you cannot use your microphone?

2. Can you provide us brief description about the issue you are experiencing?

3. Are you experiencing the issue on specific game or all games?

4. What were the actions you have taken after having the same issue even the suspension has been lifted?





We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



Sincerely,

This sort of works. But it only works if:

1. When I plug my Xbox headset into the microphone port on the back of my motherboard, which prompts a Realtek popup in the lower-right hand of the screen which prompts me to select what I plugged in: headphones, microphone, or line-in. I select "Microphone".

2. I specify the Host in Audacity as MME.

Then I can record audio into Audacity. However, I can't listen through my Xbox headset because it's plugged into the microphone port and assigned as a microphone, not as an output device like a headphone.

So I still need to know how to use this Xbox Stereo headset to record Audacity and listen to my audio simultaneously.

I have two headsets and it is the same on both, when I plug them in it only still shows me using the default microphone and speakers but still connects the speakers to my headset but not my microphone.

I don't know if it is related but I had a similar issue where my microphone was working in Discord for a few seconds then would stop. I ended up going to the Settings --> Privacy --> Microphone and view the apps that are allowed to use the microphone.
Xbox Game Bar is unchecked by default I think.

Also, if you have another program open that can use the microphone it will possibly override other programs. For example, The Division 2 game will make Discord no longer work if I turn the in game audio on to my main microphone.
