Hi, when I connect my headset (I choose headset option in realtek popup), my headset microphone replace with microphone array and I can't switch between headset mic and laptop mic. Is it a way to switch between microphone array and headset microphone if I need?

    Hello!!

    @hosseinbahiraei,

    I understand that you have trouble switching the headset Mic & laptop Mic.

    If your headphones are already set as your default input device but it still doesn’t work, it may be because it’s disabled in your sound settings.

    Knowing how to enable/disable your headphone mic connected with your PC means you can always go back and check which setting is toggled when you encounter mic concerns.

    You can do this in two ways:

    Using the Device properties – For enabling and disabling your headphone mic if it’s currently set as your default input device.

    Using the ‘Manage sound devices’ option – For when you want to enable/disable one or more mics.

    Using the Device properties

    Open Settings & Click on the “System” section.

    Click on the “Sound” section. Under the “Input” section, select the “Device properties” option.

    Your microphone should be enabled by default. For louder volume, drag the navigator on the volume bar to the right and vice versa for softer volume.

    Check or clear the “Disable” option to turn off/on the device respectively. Upon completing this step, Windows 10 and apps will not have access to the microphone.

    Using the ‘Manage sound devices’ option

    Open Settings & Click on the “System” section.

    Click on the “Sound” section. Under the “Input” section, select the Manage sound devices option.

    Under the “Input Devices” section, select the microphone.

    Click on the “Disable/Enable” button to disable or enable the device respectively.

    Repeat steps 3 and 4 to disable multiple microphones. Upon completing the above steps, Windows 10 and apps will not have access to the mics disabled.

    Hope this helps you!!

    Regards,

    @hosseinbahiraei you can change to headphones or headset when needed in Realtek Audio Console.
