So I have a afterglow lvl 3 headset which has 1 3.5 mm jack to it right. Can I hook up my usb sound card to it then a splitter to connect my headset will it work for audio from game and chat? Help please. Can somebody explain to me how I can set this up.
 
Solution
You need more than a splitter, you need an adapter for a 4 pole to a 3 pole connection. A splitter will just send the same signal to two different paths, you want to separate the mic and the speaker signals with an adapter, which does split the signal, but is not just a splitter.
