Microphone Activates By Itself Entering a Server.

[preguntonontrack]

Hello,

I ve tested my new usb headset with every windows programs for recording and testing sounds and all seems fine. It seems when i log in a server the microphone activates even having push to talk on. Is kinda annoying since the mic is very sensitive and i constantly hear myself. Let me explain my self a little better, the microphone opens only for me, to talk to other people i need to press the key to speak. I log in and i can hear everything from my mic even thought other people dont hear me unless i push the button to talk.

System: windows 7 64 bit, asus motherboard with realtek audio.
headset: plantronics .audio 655

I did a quick research about my headset but all the problems i found were like clicking sounds and other feedback problems i am not having.

Hello,

It sounds like a OS matter, that you have selected monitoring your mic trhough your speakers.
Please, read this post (from other forum):

--> in your case, you have to deactivate the "listen to this device" option.

Greetings.

No, is not that. Like i said, it activates when i enter a server. I open the client log in a server and i can hear my self all the time. This causes low quality on the game sounds and annoys me a lot... and yes it is not checked the listen to this device option.

Crazy mic

Just to be sure, go on your HotKeys settings (Settings > Options > HotKeys)
Click on the line about the hotkey for the push-to-talk > click on Edit button

Check if the option "On Key release" is checked instead the "On key Down" option
