    Computer Audio is Playing Through Discord


    I am having an issue with Discord picking up audio being played from my computer as mic input. For example, if I am watching a YouTube video, other participants in an audio call will be able to hear the video. It is often not completely clear and comes through patchy or in selective bursts. The audio is picked up regardless if the switch on my headset is turned on or off. I have had this issue for a long time and been unable to successfully implement any of the solutions provided for others with the same or similar problem. My headset is an HP Omen Blast, it connects via USB only to my desktop

    :)

    Only Discord Call audio is playing (sometimes)

    Hi, Sam Flanagan

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.



    Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the issue you're experiencing with Discord call audio. I understand how important it is for you to have a smooth communication experience.

    To troubleshoot this issue, please try the following steps:

    1. Check the Discord settings:
      • Make sure that the correct audio input and output devices are selected in Discord settings. Sometimes, the wrong devices can cause audio issues.
      • If you're using Discord overlay, try disabling it to see if it's causing any conflicts with the audio.
    2. Update Audio Drivers: Ensure that your audio drivers are up-to-date. Outdated or corrupt drivers can lead to various audio problems.
    3. Check for Discord Updates: Make sure that Discord is updated to the latest version. Updates often include bug fixes and improvements that can resolve audio issues.
    4. Check Other Applications: Ensure that no other applications are using your audio devices simultaneously, as this can cause conflicts.
    If the issue persists after trying these steps, it's possible that there may be a deeper issue with Discord itself. You can reach out to Discord support for further assistance.

    Thank you for your understanding and support!



    Best Regards

    Martin | Microsoft Community Support Specialist
