Are you supposed to be able to hear your microphone in your headphones even when no programs are open?
Are you supposed to be able to hear your microphone in your headphones even when no programs are open?
And can you disable it?

If you're on Windows 10:
Hit your Windows key or open the Start menu, type in "Sound settings" and hit Enter to open.
On the right side, click "Sound Control Panel". Select the Recording tab, right click your microphone and click "Properties".
Go to the "Listen" tab and uncheck "Listen to this Device" then hit "OK".
I'm not sure about Windows 11, though.
It's the same, just more annoying to get there.
Virtually all the control panel things are the same in Windows 11, just further hidden away by the ugly, useless interfaces they keep pushing.
If this feature is on, there's usually an annoying delay of about 100 to 200ms between when you speak and when you hear it back again.
it's weird, there's no delay at all. even when I have "listen to this device" checked i just get mt voice AGAIN but louder.
On my Rode usb mic, pressing the headphone volume knob toggles whether or not I hear my own voice though the attached headphones. It's possibly a setting on your device itself, not the computer.
Yes, I've done all that, the sound still comes through.
If you're using Logitech earphones, open ghub and disable 'sidechannel'
