[SOLVED] Does the Apple USB-A to USB C Converter work properly for headsets?

[JC Castillo]

So I have a Macbook Pro 2017 and also recently brought a USB-A Jabra headset (specifically the Evolve2 40). I also have a USB-A to USB-C converter from Apple. Though, a problem is, it seems to not work properly. The headset is noise cancelling, but that feature doesn't seem to work. All the Youtube reviews I saw of the headset has noise cancellation but my unit seems to act similar to a built-in laptop microphone.

It states it's noise cancelling meaning it will block outside sound to the ears, not that the mic is noise canceling.

This is from the product page, you may have misunderstood what they meant by noise cancellation.

Put on your Evolve2 40 and feel the noise around you instantly fade, as the isolating foam oval ear cushions and pioneering new angled earcup design work to effectively block out your surroundings, giving you outstanding passive noise cancellation.
