Acer Nitro ANV15-51 is not recording with either built in or external.

I have reinstalled both Intel and Realtek Audio drivers as well as BIOS drivers to no avail. Microphone is recorgnised and works when checked in system or control Panel but does not record on Voice Recorder or Audacity, WavePad nor AudioDirector. Tried everything possible. Is it a know hardware issue?

Have a look at this guide HERE or follow these steps, as you need to go to the System > Sound > More sound settings > Recording > and you should have either the Headset or Microphone settings there, so choose the Mic from there as it should work.

I've got my Bluetooth Headset SENNHEISER MOMEMNTUM 4 microphone as my main mic and that is how my Headset mic works perfectly within Win-11 and conferencing apps and/or with my mobile phone. Try that as it works even with a stand alone microphine as its got the settings in the Sound section below. Good luck and hope this helps you out.
