Skype and teamspeak contacts can hear each other when my mic is off

[Blaxeep]

Hey there,

I have a bit of a strange problem. Whenever I use skype and teamspeak at the same time (doesn't happen that often) something strange happens when I turn off the microphone. The person who I am talking to on skype can hear the other person speaking on teamspeak, although they are not in the same conversation. Really a totally other program. They can't hear me, only each other. People also tell me there's a lot of background noise when skyping with me. Maybe this has something to do with it?
I hope someone can help me. Thanks!

Can you confirm that stereo mix is disabled in your audio settings?

Are you plugging your mic into the front panel audio? I found that in some cases, the audio cables in some chassis are not shielded very well and you can get some cross-talk. The same thing was happening to me with a Phantom 410 (case) and PC360's (headset) even if the mic itself was muted. Switching to the rear audio ports resolved the issue for me.

Yes, stereo mix is disabled. :/
