Hello
When I talk most of the time in Discord other people can’t hear me very loud, they have to turn me to 200% and still my voice is very very silent. Is anyone having same problem or some idea how to fix this?
I tried with the same headset on my laptop who is running absolutely the same configured gnome and there is no problem with volumes.
Im using Steelseries Arctis Prime headset. I plug it in my motherboard MSI MAG X570S TORPEDO MAX. I’m running Manjaro Gnome Minimal with kernel 6.5.5-1. If there is more information needed please let me know!
Hello, thanks for your reply, alsamixer is not installed on my machine, so i did
sudo pacman -S alsa-utils
In mic testing it sounds good, later today I will test it in discord talk and will reply with an update!
Also there is no Mic Boost setting, I checked some other alsamixer topics and I saw the Mic Boost, but there is none on mine

While we are in a call, there are usually more than two peeps and all of them can’t hear me good. I don’t think there is a problem with all of their PC’s.
The thing is, the volume controls that you can access are usually just for your computer. Perhaps there is a streaming-related setting for audio that might apply; maybe in Discord; maybe somewhere else.
All I can do is guess, as I don’t use Discord, and I don’t chat online using a headset. I hope you find a solution though.
I understand your point, but to me it seems strange that with the same configuration on my laptop and with the same headset they hear me very nice, loud and clear
Motherboard has ALC4080 audio codec that is detected as a USB audio device in ALSA.
Device does not have an ALSA mixer control for Mic Boost but it does have a mixer control for Mic
Card sysdefault:3 'Audio'/'Generic USB Audio at usb-0000:2a:00.3-5, high speed'
Mixer name : 'USB Mixer'
Components : 'USB0db0:a073'
Controls : 29
Simple ctrls : 6
Simple mixer control 'Mic',0
Capabilities: cvolume cswitch cswitch-joined
Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right

To check Mic level setting in ALSA
amixer --card=USB sget 'Mic'
Discord settings for Voice & Video includes a Mic TEST that will record microphone audio and play it back
I also suggest turning off Automatic Gain Control in Voice & Video > Advanced so the microphone audio level in Discord is not changed once it has been set by user
