This headset setting then over-rides the laptop’s inbuilt mic whenever the headset is plugged in and prioritises the headset mic. Eventually I found the very simple answer is to go back to that pop-up box and instruct Realtek that I have now plugged in a headset instead of headphones. Two years later when I plugged in a headset with inline mic and tried to use it for video calls the mic would not work and I searched dozens of help threads and was amazed at the plethora of complicated BS answers given by “webxperts” including re-installs and registry fixes. In my case the very first time I plugged audio headphones into my laptop a pop-up box from Realtek HD Audio Manager asked me what kind of device I have plugged in and I checked “headphones” plus “Don’t ask me again” and forgot all about it. If you are using a laptop or PC with Realtek audio system and a 2-into-1 combined headphone/microphone/headset 3.5mm jack the system does not auto-detect what kind of device you have plugged in and you need to tell the system what kind of device you are using the jack for.
