Help! I can't connect my headset to vPilot for some reason. On the audio menu I can only see the inbuilt stuff. I do have a combined Headphone/Microphone jack however, this should make no difference. There is no driver / install for these headphones anyways.

 

One of the main reasons why I got this headset was for Vatsim!

 

 

Thanks!

Ed

Do your headphones have a 3.5mm plug, or a USB plug? If it's a 3.5mm plug (which it sounds like it is the way you describe it as a combined headphones/mic plug) then that means it will not show up as its own audio device in the vPilot audio device lists. You should just select whichever built-in device you plugged the headset into.

 

And are you sure your sound device supports a combined headset/mic plug? I've always seen them as separate inputs, but I haven't used a non-USB headset for many years, so maybe things have changed.
