Computer sound playing through microphone when using voice programs like Skype.

[kittybooze]

I'm using Windows 10 and I'm having the issue of being unable to stop my computer sounds from playing into my input. I've tried numerous things like disabling all other available outputs and inputs. I also bought a cheap usb converter for my audio/mic input headset that I'm using, and that seems to do nothing to help. I'm ready to tear my hair out over this so any advice is very much appreciated. Its frustrating to have to use push to talk no matter what I'm using.

Why not removing the system sounds all together?

Nono, sorry I meant that everything plays, for example: If I'm playing a game with friends then they are able to hear my game sound come through crystal clear, unless I lessen the audio or mute it all together.

When you're using Push to Talk option, while holding the key down and not saying anything, does the game sounds are still heared clearly by others?

Yes, it does.

Had to use Uncle Google's help since your problem lies in software while this subforum is hardware.

Either way, found a topic with the same problem and many different solutions to try for. 1st solution is in #9 post. The problem got fixed there though.

A lot of stuff about realtek, which I'm not using.
