You need to start poking around in the Windows Audio panel to get your heaphones to work, or at least that is what I have had to do. 

 

Like for example my Razer headset came with a proprietary USB audio adapter, and I found that in order for Zoom to consistently recognize the plug in microphone that you attach to a 3.5mm socket on my headphones, I had to have the adapter plugged in with my headset connected to it, and have to configure windows to default to the audio card. 

 

Fuck you scalpers, fuck you scammers, fuck all of you jerks that charge way too much to tech-illiterate people. 

Unless I say I am speaking from experience or can confirm my expertise, assume it is an educated guess.

Current setup: Ryzen 5 3600, MSI MPG B550, 2x8GB DDR4-3200, RX 5600 XT (+120 core, +320 Mem), 1TB WD SN550, 1TB Team MP33, 2TB Seagate Barracuda Compute, 500GB Samsung 860 Evo, Corsair 4000D Airflow, 650W 80+ Gold. Razer peripherals. 

Also have a Alienware Alpha R1: i3-4170T, GTX 860M (≈ a 750 Ti). 2x4GB DDR3L-1600, Crucial MX500
