Speakers and Headphones


Recommended Posts

Ok, so I have a pair of headphones, which doesn't play sound, but still has a mic that records just fine.

And I have Speakers, which play sound but doesn't have a mic.

See how there could be a team here?

Well I got 'em both plugged in, but now my Speakers won't play sound.

Is there a way to fix this?

Are you trying to use your pc as karaoke machine ?? :p

 

This behaviour often occurs by default on most chipsets. In some chipsets you can override it in audio properties/in others you cant ;) It all depends on what you are trying to achieve and what hardware you have. Ive often seen webcam/headset mic users encountering this on some basic audio chipsets ;) Less likely to happen on a snazzy soundcard of course....

 

Best thing to do is check if you have a full complement of 3rd party sound sound drivers/utility installed, or are running the windows default drivers, which can be quite limited in functionality
