Microphone outputting Headphone audio...

So I recently got a new PC, running win10, with a ROG STRIX B450-F GAMING. When I'm on discord, the microphone on my headset doesn't work, but my headphones do (Seinheiser HD 4.40BT with one male 3.5mm cable).

Skip a few weeks, and I get a splitter: female 3.5mm to two male 3.5mm. I plug them into their respective ports on my motherboard, and another problem arises. Now, if I'm on a call, my mic doesn't work but whatever audio is played through my headset is played through my microphone. This is where I'm at now...

Thanks for any help :)

Have you tried changing your default microphone in your sound settings?

Make sure within the application you are making a call from go check its settings to be sure that the application isn't using another device as a microphone to listen. This happened to me on Discord.

Could you link the splitter you purchased?
