    why windows detect input wireless headphone as headset not microphone


    Hello All,Kindly helpp please. In my windows 11 PC i have connect my wireless bluetooth to this PC. After successfully connected, the builtin mic on headshet detected as headshet on input sound. So when i have online meeting i cannot use my mic & my friends cannot hear my voices. I have try to reset this PC but the problem wont dissapear.What i read on google is "When Windows detects a wireless headphone as a "headset" instead of just a "microphone," it's usually because the system is interpreting the audio input from the headphones as a combined audio stream for both listening and re

    Laptop not detecting headset microphone.

    Recently, I bought a headset with a microphone attached for use when chatting with friends, the headphones are detected by my laptop and work perfectly fine however, the microphone doesn't work and isn't detected at all, i have followed all the steps I could find to try correcting this including checking microphone permissions, checking the device manager which does show the headset as an audio input and output, and also tried using the audio input troubleshooter which, when the headset is plugged in and mic is folded down to unmute it, thinks there's just nothing plugged into the audio jack as well. I even bought a USB-C to 3.5mm adaptor (which as far as I know has a DAC in it) to try and bypass the built-in audio jack but that also isn't detected. The laptop being used is a Dell G15 5511 with a HyperX Cloud Stinger headset.
     
  3. Windows not detecting bluetooth headset microphone (treats headset as just headphones)

    Using JBL 750BTNC headset with Windows

    Bluetooth works well on other devices both for output (headphones) and input (mic built into headphones)

    Until about a week ago this headset worked well with the PC via bluetooth

    Stopped working in the middle of a Teams call - I reset/restarted everything, disconnected and reconnected bluetooth - then when I initially could not select the headset microphone I then bluetooth re-paired the headset.

    Since that time Windows refuses to recognise the headset as anything other than headphones

    The mic on the headset works with all other devices - suggesting not a hardware problem

    Asus Windows 10 Enterprise PC version 2004 OS build 19041.208 Windows feature experience pack 120.2202.130.0

    Tried adjusting sound mixer/system tray

    Tried updating software drivers

    No good - windows refuses to acknowledge that the headset microphone exists

    why windows detect input wireless headphone as headset not microphone

    HP Pavilion desktops headphone and microphone input

    It appears to be a headset icon. So it could work but I need an adatper. What about the ports on the back? Can headphone be plugged into audio "line out" (port 6) and microphone into port 7 (refer to image above)
