G Pro X Wireless plays mute/unmute sound when audio starts or volume is changed
I'm having this issue since updating to Windows 11 24H2, I've talked to Logitech support and they said since this is only happening on my PC and not others, its a Windows 11 update issue.
Here is what they said:
I understand your concern. I request you to contact Windows support as you are facing the issue after the Windows 11 update. There are high chances of audio drivers not updated properly. Hence, if you contact Windows support they will help you reinstall the software.
Please advise on how I should proceed, I've also linked a Reddit post with people having the same issue:

No one has found a solution yet

2025-03-20T10:44:50+00:00 I have tried all these suggestions and nothing works :( veery annoying.. Or listen this device but that doesnt work for me, i dont wanna hear myself when speaking to some1
The permanent listening/recording solution is unfortunately the only workaround that actually works for me, likely for a lot of others as well. To avoid hearing yourself a possible solution is to select a playback device that you are not using, like the speakers of your monitor for example.
Sound Settings -> Additional Settings -> Recording tab -> Logitech G Pro X Wireless Gaming Headset microphone -> Properties -> Listening tab -> check the listen box but DO NOT choose Logitech G Pro X Wireless Gaming Headset from the drop down menu, instead choose whatever device you are not actively using and mute it (a monitor, a controller with sound, whatever you are able to select and won't hear).
Be mindful that updating your windows seems to reset these settings and you may have to do it again.
All this being said, having to resort to workarounds like this is absolutely comical, and I desperately hope Logitech sues for damages since Microsoft is directly causing their existing customers to return their products, as well as influencing potential customers to outright refuse to buy. Even in this thread some earlier comments suggest to buy headsets from different brands to solve the problem...

2024-10-25T06:20:03+00:00 Hi Taimur Ansari,
Welcome to Microsoft Community.
Based on the original description, we understand that your device is experiencing frequent mute and unmute issues.
The Logitech team gives a reasonable speculation that an anomaly in the driver's data state could be causing the strange issue.
Unfortunately, we are in an online environment that does not have direct access to Reddit.
If possible, would you mind sharing with us the critical information in the thread?
If this issue appears after a Windows update, the first thing worth trying is to uninstall any recently installed updates.
- Select Start > Settings > Windows Update > Update history > Uninstall updates.
- On the list that appears, locate the update you want to remove, and then select Uninstall next to it.
For drivers, you could try performing a clean uninstall/clean install of the driver if possible.

- For older versions of the driver, you can visit the device manufacturer's product support site.
- After the driver "package" is removed from the device, the driver cannot be installed by scanning for hardware changes. Please be careful to back up the driver installation files in advance.
Disclaimer: Please back up all your important data before performing it. For the device itself, the state of its drivers or firmware may also affect the behavior of the audio drivers.
If possible, you can try to restore the G Pro X Wireless itself to the default firmware state.
If I misunderstand your situation, feel free to correct me and share the information.
