I just received my new Corsair HS50 Pro Headset. While the sound works fine.. The mic does not record my voice in either state of the headset mute button. My older headset works properly with no problems. My cheap clip-on microfone also works fine. The headset is properly connected with the y-Splitter. The microphone is clipped into the headset. When listening to audio through the headset the mic is able to record that. It works in both mute states. It even works without the mic being attached to the headset. It wont record the audio when the 3.5mm mic jack is not connected to the computer (obv). So i believe its not my computer's fault. In following thread the phenomen is described as "sidetone audio through the earcups" [https://forum.corsair.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1774989]. The steps described did not fix my problem. Im running Win10 Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.508). I will need the headset working properly for an online job interview next week. Maybe the problem can be fixed easily due to user error. Otherwise i will have to send it back. With best regards, User23112020
