Discord call muting other sounds

So I have this problem where whenever I join a Discord call or any voice call, the rest of my audio is muted, such as in-game audio, Spotify, YouTube videos, etc. The only thing that seems to work is disabling my mic, but it's annoying that I have to constantly enable and disable my mic.

The things that I tried:

  • Reinstalling my audio drivers
  • Updating all my audio drivers
  • Check Discord to see if it is the main issue
  • Troubleshooting
  • Reinstall old audio drivers

The headphone that I'm using is the Hyperx Cloud Stinger.

    Hi there! I hope you are doing well. My name is, Zadee. I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. Sorry to hear about your experience. I'll try my best to help you today.

    Please try turning off attenuation completely in discord under Voice & Video setting. Slide the bar completely to the left until it reaches 0. Also, toggle OFF "When I speak" and "When others speak".

    Thank you. Did that help at all?
