I want to connect my laptop to my TV using a HDMI cable, and then be able to listen to it with both headphones at the same time. But can not create a new topic or reply to an existing one unless you are logged in. It works, however, the sound on the bluetooth is bad, and there is a 2 second delay.

Yes this will work, it's certainly not designed to function this way but it will work. The most likely reason this stopped working is a setting change.Assumption:You have a stereo to stereo (TRS to TRS) splitter and not a stereo to 2 mono or Left vs Right splitter. One for the headphones and one for the microphones.Settings:You can get to these settings several different ways and it may vary depending on the operating system. Since you tagged this with PC I'm assuming windows of some variety from XP to Windows 10. If that's not the case there should be a similar setting in any other operating system it just won't be found as described in the following instructions. In the control panel in all the Windows versions there should be a 'sound' option. With that open click the 'Recording' tab.

Select the input device, most likely in this case it will be 'Microphone' with a subtext that has the name of your soundcard. Click it, then click 'Properties' then on the 'Listen' tab there is a checkbox for 'Listen to this device' select that and choose where you want to have the sound played to. Most likely it will be your 'Default Playback Device' but depending on your setup you may want that to play to just the output the headphones are connected to. After that is selected click 'Okay' and close the previous sound window. You're all set.WARNINGYou may want to just click 'Apply' and test this before you close the windows as an incorrect setting may play this back through speakers or otherwise cause horrible feedback. Clicking 'Apply' give you a quicker chance to uncheck the box and hit 'Apply' again to turn this off until you can figure out what went wrong.This setup will also very likely cause a bit of a delay with the voices speaking which can cause quite the cognitive dissonance and make talking hard to do. I'm sure you're probably already aware of this if this is how you were setup before but for anyone else it's good to know before hand as some people cannot speak coherent sentences when this happens.ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONSA: Get a USB soundcard to use as a second microphone and headphone connection.

This will eliminate any self echo but may not be ideal if there are clips/music playing that both need to hear as the computer will only let you set one device as default for all the other sounds to go to. You would set this up in a very similar way as described above however Microphone from soundcard A would be chosen to Playback on soundcard B and vice versa.B: Get a more advanced setup with a small inexpensive 4 channel mixer/soundcard that can send the microphones into the computer, an aux channel that would send both voices to headphones (sometimes called Zero Latency Monitoring for the soundcards), and an input from the computer that could also be sent to both headphones. This eliminates all the delay that would cause stuttering and confusion by the broadcaster while allowing both to hear the PC.

Old title: audio devicesI'm trying to use a headset with two chords to plug into the audio jack, sadly there is only one hole/jack to plug two things into. I purchased an audio splitter so I can plug two things into the one jack.

The headset I am trying to use with the splitterworks perfectly on my phone but the microphone for the headset will not register and or work on my laptop. How can I get the microphone to work (I have already gone to sound and checked the recording tab for disabled devices.)thanks!:). Hello,We realize your concern in this regard.I guess the problem might be with the device compatibility with Windows 10. To confirm the same, try connecting the device to different computer, which contain single jack using a splitter to see if it works correctly. This will give us the clue on the rootcause. Also try using a different splitter to see if it make any difference.Do check this issue by connecting Headset with Mic having single jack to see if it works fine.Meanwhile try updating the audio drivers once to make sure they are up to date and not causing any issues.a) Open run command by pressing Windows key + R and type “ devmgmt.msc” (without quotes) and hit Enter.b) Spot and expand the “ Sound, video and game controllers ”.c) Right click on theHigh Definition Audio Device driver and select “ Disable”. When it prompts to choose an option, clickOK.

Close the Window, come back and try to re-enable it. Now check if the issue still appears.d).

If it does, then right click on the High Definition Audio Devicedriver and select “ Update Driver Software”. When it prompts to choose an optionHow do you want to search driver, then go with Search automatically for updated driver software.If you have a driver available on your PC, then select Browse my computer for driver software,then select the appropriate location, where the driver located on your PC for updating it. ( Ensure that PC is connected to Internet while performing this step)e). Once this is done, restart the computer to check the problem fixed.
