    Crazy random buzzing sound from the microphone of my new headset


    For the first hour I think, the microphone was still doing fine. Then I played Counter Strike: Global Offensive and in the middle of the game, strange buzzing from the microphone started coming out until now. Searched everywhere on google, this forum, youtube for fix but I can't find one. Here's an example of the buzzing of my microphone:

    Hope you'll be able to help me with this bug I'm encountering right now. Cheers

    What type of Headset/microphone do you have? We are left to guess without it. e.g. is it a USB connected or is it a standard PC mic with a Tip/Ring/Sleeve (stereo) plugs for the headset and mic?

    Also I would not consider that "buzzing" but a "static" type sound. It can be caused by poor connection to the PC, a loose connection in the plug or at the microphone. A defective mic cable can also cause that. If its a USB powered headset, the voltage connection can cause that. Many possibilities.

    I have a standard PC mic with a Tip/Ring/Sleeve plugs. What I've observed is that when I play a video or when I play a certain game, the static sound increases but when I don't, I only receive a minimal one. But Idk it's just my observation. Can you help me with this? Thanks

    PC Info would help too.
    But, try plugging in the mic to the rear Pink mic jack, for testing and see if it does it there too.

    If it does, wiggle the plug, and then the cable to see if it does it.
