AUDIO MIXER

[Fp1121]

My microphone is picking up my audio of the pc anybody know why. When i play a video on chrome it plays through my microphone.

Can you give some more details, like signal path (what equipment you have, what's plugged into what and how, etc.)?

[Fp1121]

I have the main mix going into the computer on the speaker jack and the first input to the headset jack.

It's still not entirely clear to me what's going on.  Was something changed recently that brought about this issue or did it come out of no where despite nothing having changed?

[Fp1121]

it come out of no where without nothing being changed. and i went to the sound control panel and see if something was wrong but it looks good. So idk why its picking up the audio from my pc

If nothing has changed then I guess nothing about your physical setup can possibly be to blame.  Must be a Windows issue.  Just to be 100% clear, when you say "When i play a video on chrome it plays through my microphone", do you mean that if you do a recording, outputs from the PC are being picked up and recorded, or do you mean that outputs are being sent to the mic and you can hear the sound faintly from the mic itself?

the output of the video is being sent to the mic but i could still hear the video good through my headsets. So the output is going to microphone and headsets and the video sound is not faint

?

I'm really at a loss for what could cause this.  If it was a cabling issue then certainly I can see how it would happen but if everything has been working fine and then with no physical changes this came out of no where, I don't understand how sound could suddenly start getting sent to the mic.

can it be the version of my windows or something in my control panel that you think im missing

A long shot, but right click on the audio icon in the lower right of your taskbar, click recording devices, now right click on your mic and click properties, click the listen tab at the top, make sure the box labeled "listen to this device" is unchecked. Do this for all input devices. See if that changes anything.

Make sure to quote people so they see your reply.

 

It very well could be. Realtek software is ass, imo. I don't have it in front of me, but dig around in it to see what you can't find. Play with it and try different things.

I used to have realtek drivers or software or something installed for years.  I also would randomly have issues with features mysteriously coming and going at random, among other things.  I eventually gave up on the software and just used what windows provides and have been all the better for it.
