Only use a microphone on the 4-pin 3.5mm headset output [Aspire R7 or similar]

Hi,

 

I own an Acer Aspire R7-572G which has a combined 4-pin 3.5mm headset jack.

 

I would like to use a normal microphone with an 3.5mm connector. The microphone did not work by directly plugging the connector into the socket, therefore I bought an adapter which splits the 4-pin output into speaker & microphone sockets.

 

Now the microphone does work properly, however, unless I am connecting external speakers I am not able to use the internal notebook speakers. (maybe because the notebook assumes that a headset is plugged in)

 

>>> Is there a way to use my external microphone and the internal notebook speakers?

 

 

 

One more thing to mention: If I plug in the cable, a popup on the notebook appears asking which device I just plugged in. Sadly my only three options are "headphones", "speaker output" or "headset". NO MICROPHONE OPTION !!! argh... Robot Mad

 

Kind regards,

Mario
