Its been quite a while since i am facing this problem
The problem is, many times system doesnt detect after boot, that if there are earphones (with mic) connected or not. Right now, while posting this i am seeing this at audio settings, but after first boot; its only the upper section without “Recording Devices” section. Although even at that time, earphones speakers do work but not microphone.
And to solve this, I always have to re-plug in earphones, to make this recording section appear; and even with this… some times the current recording device is “Internal microphone” even after i plugged in an earphone. So i have to manually switch it.

I recall when i was on a older manjaro version, i didnt had this problem, not my current windows setup has this problem, it automatically switches to earphones for default output and earphones’s mic for default input.
