Whenever I plug in my headphones, all sound cuts out.

[Ethan023]

Even when I unplug them, I still cannot find a way to get sound to work in that specific game unless I quit and relaunch using speakers. my headset works fine while using google/youtube.

When you unplug them, usually windows will move to another audio source.

Have you tried other ports?

[Ethan023]

yes, I have tried the ports on my case and motherboard.

Sounds like your game can’t handle windows swapping out audio output devices on the fly, while the browser has no problem.

[Ethan023]

Would there be a way to fix that?

[Cathulhu]

Plug in your headset before you start the game. Most games do not support changing the soundcard on the fly.

Are you connecting your headset over 3.5-mm jack or via usb?

[Ethan023]

I am using 2 jacks, one for audio and one for voice.

All your audio setup is connected to your motherboard?
What motherboard is it? Did you install the audio driver from the motherboard manufacturerer's site?

I know that f.e. gigabyte's audio driver will install the audio driver from the Microsoft Store. That will also install some additional features f.e. if you put in an audio device you will get a desktop notification. The "Which device did you put in ?" dialog box appears. As long as you don't select the device and click "ok" on that dialog box, you won't have any audio.

You can also try the SoundMixer option in windows.

I had my headphones plugged into my case. I started messing around with them and I put them in the motherboard. Then I shut down my computer, started it back up, and it works perfectly.

U can't hotplug usb audio while running a game.
Plug them in before launching games.

[Jelly Donut]

Some games don't support hot plugging of audio devices, examples are like Minecraft JE.

You need to decide which audio device you wish to use before you start a game.

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Most games actually will not, because the default or active audio needs to be changed before the playback starts.

is that true, can't you just switch output device in sound settings?
