    Microphone doesn't work and sounds works


    So I recently got a new computer and when I plug in my wired earphones the audio works fine. The problem is that my microphone doesn't work. I have allowed permission for apps to be able to use the microphone. So I think it is a software issue. Also, my microphone does not work for my wireless earbuds too.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    :)

    have you followed the troubleshooting guide I shared?

    Could you tell me the brand of your headphones, also if possible share a screenshot of your audio settings on the Pc

    Hi SamWonjaeLee! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    In the case of your wired earphones you should first check if your PC jack has built in both options, as commonly bthey use one jack for output and other for input

    In the case of your wireless earbuds you should check on the soun settings that is the selected device for Mic input, if your jack allowed both input and output you should do the same with your wired one

    You can try to troubleshoot this way

    Thank you for the response.

    My wireless earbuds are Galaxy Buds and I've found that the compatibility with Windows is not great so I've given up on using those for now.

    As for my wired earbuds, I know that they have a microphone with a 4 pole 3.5mm tip and I've checked that the jack I plugged in is used for both input and output.

    But for some reason, the microphone for my wired earbuds do not work. I've noticed that the output and input sensitivity are the same whenever I play audio which I find odd.

    Hello,

    Are you directly connected in Jack ?

    If so, I advise you to buy the xbox adapter for headsets.

    Some headsets have a lot of trouble working without them.

    Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter Question.

    I was referring to the set that comes with the hands free microphone in them. The sound will work but the microphone might not.
