Hi,

Whenever an application is using my microphone, all the audio that plays gets suppressed and muffled and nearly quiet, there was an option to disable this before, but I just don't know how to disable it.

Disabling the options such as Audio Enhancements will make it normal for around 2 seconds before it becomes muffled again.

    Hello! Check if there is a pre-installed Dolby Atmos application on your computer. My problem was that the "Auto Profile" setting was enabled and there was a "Voice" profile. If there is such a program, turn off the setting in the lower right corner and turn on the dynamic profile.

    I am experiencing the same issues. I cannot watch YouTube videos or anything that might have a more to it than voice as it is filtered out. This is mind bendingly stupid!

    I have the very same problem.. is there any setting to disable this problematic noise cancelation technology.

    It would appear your solution did not solve the issue. I also have the same problem.

    Do you have any further suggestions? Because at the moment I have a laptop that is more useful as a door stop if I can't get the microphone to pick up my son's guitar playing during his online lessons.

    Please advise.
