Question

How to setup dual jack headphones with Realtek HD??

Mar 7, 2018 12:22PM PST

My headset with mic has 2 jacks obviously one for the mic and one for audio out. When I plug it in to the right jacks, whichever one goes in first cancels the other out. (ex. plug in the mic first I can only use the headset as a mic and not headphones) Anyone know how to fix this, or a certain setup I have to do (also, a splitter wont work my computer doesn't support it)
