Razer Barracuda mic prob.

Foxspeed

Hi all,

I have installed a Razer Barracuda sound card and headset but have a problem with playback.

For some reason when using the headset's microphone in game, other people can hear the game's sounds from my PC. Also, if I play music on my PC with any external speakers disconnected and chat to someone using the microphone, they can also hear the music.
When I check the Recording Devices in Windows 7, I can see the green 'volume bars' jumping up and down to the music's volume levels.

Please could you tell me whats wrong? I have uninstalled numerous times and downloaded the latest drivers.

I have submitted a ticket to Razer but still waiting for a reply.

Thanks,

Paul.

Update:

I received a reply from Razer just asking how I connected the headset and they are now closed until Monday. I really would like to get this problem sorted before then as I have an international gaming match on Sunday evening.
Thanks for any help given.

Look at your recording & playback controls again, somewhere there will be an option for "Stereo Mix", "What U Hear", or similar - remove the check mark from that slider and all should be well.

Checked numerous times now and cannot see those options. Just to confirm, I am running Windows 7.

Thanks for your reply.
