Hi,

I have a Sony laptop (Model:SCF14AC1QL) and when I plug in a headset with mic (TRRS) the onboard microphone starts working and the sound does come out of the headset earplugs. The list of recording devices only has one microphone listed. I have updated the sound driver to the latest version after this problem started.

Thanks for any help you can give.
