Onikuma K8 headset microphone not working on Windows 11

I recently bought an Onikuma K8 headset and cannot get my headset's microphone to work. The headset its self works, i can hear anything in any of my games, i just cant talk. The microphone is being recognized as the audio device my pc has (Realtak HD audio) yet when i choose it I can't talk. I have already done the following without it working.

  • Reset my computer
  • Made sure my headset wasn't muted
  • Allowed access to microphone on all apps
  • Made sure it was plugged into the right ports with an adapter splitter
  • Used sound troubleshoot feature
  • Went into the sounds menu and set the headset microphone to main choice and 100% volume and
  • Disabled other apps being able to control device
  • Tested sound directly in settings and on Discord

Also when i used the sound troubleshoot for input, it only played a sound which would be for an output device. I have been searching online, most of what came up was about Windows 10, and what i could find on Windows 11 didn't help. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Lyndsey,

    I have checked the issue, and as I understand it, please check if the headset is appearing in the sound settings. If it is showing, troubleshoot the app settings you are using. If it is not showing, please check the sound drivers on your system.

    Please refer to the attached screenshot for the sound settings.

    I hope this resolves the issue; if not, please let me know.

    Thanks and regards,

    Arvind Kumar
