Using Phone Link to make calls with PC headphones & Mic

I am struggling to get Phone Link on windows 11 to utilise the headset I use for my PC as the speaker and Mic for calls made/received in Phone Link.

All my drivers are up to date, I am using Astro A50s which work for all other aspects of mic/sound (these are wired to base, 2.4ghz wireless, so not bluetooth headset) and a Samsung Galaxy S21.

Sometimes when I receive a call, the phone notes that it is using the PC for bluetooth output, and I can hear the the audio, but the mic doesnt seem to work.

Would love for this to be resolved so I dont need to change headsets everytime I want to go from Zoom call to phone call.

Thanks,

Daniel

    did you mean Samsung Flow? it does not have call feature through the PC.

    clicking a phone number on the PC can call the number using the linked phone through Phone Link, but not possible with Samsung Flow.

    Okay found a solution, if you have wired headset with mic built in you can plug into your phone it will switch to the headset if you select "send to phone " for the audio. No way to do it through windows, just use your phones headphone jack, or converter if you need for the new phone lol Now this means you cant use any headphones you want but its a work around!

    Well after looking at the Microsoft phone link troubleshooting page I found this gem.

    Why can't I use my Bluetooth headphones on my PC to get calls from the Phone Link app?

    The Phone Link app does not currently support relaying a phone call from your Android device to a headset over Bluetooth.

    I have the same issues. No headsets seem to work with the phone link app as its using the Bluetooth connection to export the sound from phone to the default laptop speakers and built in mic vs using a usb or Bluetooth headset so that there is no echo and you get privacy while making your calls. I cant seem to find a work around looks like its an oversight by Microsoft as I need to talk to clients on my second line and would like some privacy and for them not to here themselves with this aggressive echo from the laptop speakers. Have you found a work around for this?
