mic picking up headphone audio on windows 11? no way found to untie audio jacks? - Lemmy.World

I’ve had this problem since I got the new computer and I can’t find a fix to save my soul. All the stuff I read online didn’t work, and most other options are for windows 10. I found one thing that says realtek drivers tie your audio jacks together by default and to turn that off, but there’s no audio driver manager I can find to do so. What do I do, where do I go? It’s a Lenovo Legion with only one audio jack, and my headphones have the 4 ring 3.5mm jack.

those didn’t work. one says amd adrenaline drivers, but I have nahemic, nvidia hd audio, and realtek. no amd. 3rd one doesn’t even have the solution. but thx anyways

Which legion is this? At first I was think8ng that it’s a hardware issue, but I realized that I also have a lenovo legion, and I do not have this problem.

Could it be a windows-issue? I use linux, so that might also be a causal difference.

it’s a Legion 5 16IRX9 - Type 83DG, one audio jack and my headset is a 4 ring headphones with mic

It could be the audio driver, a missing piece of software related to the the audio chip set, or it could be an OMTP vs CTIA issue
