If this doesn't work, then rearrange the the two outputs of the splitters to different slots. I'm sure you've tried this already, so try to constantly change the ring alignment every several seconds with the connector and the splitter by pulling it out slightly and pushing it back in.

This has helped me diagnose a 2 year long fight with my microphone. My issue was that I was using an extension so my headset could reach without giving me restrictions on head movement. What I didn't know was that my extension was a 3 pin, not a 4 pin. I even bought, unknowingly, a 4 pin to 3 pin splitter because I have a 4 pin headset jack and a 3 pin mic jack. The extension worked for audio. I now know all I need is a new extension that's a 4 pin. Thank you!

Why i feel like he's the one of Senior tech professional when he organised this video so well.... A straightforward explanation and doesn't take too long is the only i needed and thank you for fulfilling it. Also i didn't know there such a thing called audio splitter lol

my mind is blown, it never occurred to me that the pins were any different, and now I see it clear as day! I have an older self-build with a built-in audio with line in/out and mic on separate jacks. This has explained so much so quickly and simply, so kudos.

bro this helped me so much now i can talk to all my freinds, none of the other videos worked just this one. you got straight to the point and it helped me so much thx uuuuuuu

Thank you SO much!!!!! I bought a good microphone a few months ago after years of hesitating, and I was so disappointed that my computer thought it was headphones. I've been on so many forums where people advised to update the drivers but didn't get that the problem was the microphone being detected as a headphone. I found your video when I thought I'd give up and you explained it so well!! It makes a lot of sense now, I just bought a a TRS to TRRS converter, hopefully it will work now! I've learnt a lot and fixed a very annoying problem thanks to you, keep up the amazing work! :)

Little suggestion here, if you have some sort of modern gaming controller that has a micro usb port on it (such as a PS4 controller or Xbox one) they will have a 3.5mm 4 pin connector on there and you can then connect that via a micro USB to USB connector and get auido from it.

Thanks for this video! I had a splitter and the mic not working was driving me nuts and it wasn't quite this problem, but you explaining the 4 and 3 pin difference helped me figure it out.
