So, if in your motherboards specs you see the words : I've never had any issues with Realtek solutions in the past though, which leads me to think this is just a new product (USB audio?) and driver issues with Windows 11 probably. Honestly I wonder if I have any issue with my board, I can't imagine this being normal, if it is then shame on Asus for putting such a piece of **** audio solution on such an expensive motherboard. (uninstalled all the software and disabled Realtek USB audio in BIOS) Was able to get a Razer Blackshark v2 same day from amazon and everything is working fine now. I know it's the sound card because I have two 3.5mm headsets I have tested and also have a Logitech USB webcam with mic built in and every time I switch to the USB webcam mic everyone says now I have echo but I sound plenty loud. (Start - settings - system - sound - click on your microphone and then click start test)Īnd this is very similar to the results I get in teams, sometimes I will hear from people I sound fine and other times they will say I am way too quiet. Windows mic test only show single digits. I think this has something to do with windows 11 and some new way they are doing audio. Thing is, zoom never had an issue or complaint, when I joined a zoom session the other day I was way too loud (20-30+ db gain) and then zoom auto corrected it. I tried the gain option and it yielded no results.

it gets a bit noisy with that much gain, but not bad enough anyone on zoom notices. There should be a gain slider for the mic if you go to the realtek control panel or into the advance audio window settings.
