I just bought a new DELL PC but there's no microphone jack on the front or on the back (sound card). I picked up a Sabrent USB Audio Stereo Sound Adapter (AU-MMSA) off Amazon and tried that. It has an input for a mic and an output for headphones or a speaker, but when I plug it in it doesn't work.
The PC recognizes it as a USB device. I run the speaker test tone and I see it working on the PC, but I can't hear anything through thus USB adapter. I plug in the microphone and run the test and nothing is recorded. I have a ticket open with Sabrent but am not getting satisfactory answers or solutions. I can only surmise it doesn't work on WIN11 properly.
Anyone have another idea/option that I can try inexpensively?
