Hearing yourself through your headset can feel a little strange. But when there's a delay between what you say and when you hear it is extremely annoying. Fortunately we can fix this.
Right Click on Volume in taskbar. Click Open Sound Settings Under Sound in the right hand window, Scroll down to Input Click on Device Properties Click on Additional Device Properties Click on Listen tab Uncheck the Listen To This Device checkbox Click Apply and OK You shouldn't hear the microphone though your headset any more. Click the test button to see that the microphone is still working. Even though you don't hear the microphone through the headset you should still see movement on the volume bar directly above the test button. You can now close the Device Properties Window.
If your microphone works in some programs, but not others like Ring Central or Microsoft Teams, you need to change the privacy settings. Right click on your start button and click on settings. Type Microphone in the search box and then click on Microphone privacy settings. Make sure that Allow apps to access your microphone is turned on.
