I have a problem where I can record the computer’s audio just fine if it’s playing out of the speakers, but as soon as I plug in headphones the sound disappears and silence is recorded. They are just standard headphones, not USB. Any ideas how to fix this?
Stereo Mix on many computers sends the show out to the speaker connection and then turns it around and brings it back in for recording. That’s why it’s a very common complaint that someone can’t change the volume of the speakers without messing up the recording. My first guess is your headphone system interrupts that pathway.
