VC and Game Audio go through different audio sources

I cannot make my VC audio and Game Audio both go through my headphones. It works fine if I put them both through my speakers. It works fine if I put VC audio through my headphones and Game Audio through my speakers. But if I set both to go through my headphones, it just mutes the game audio and only plays the VC audio. What can I do to fix this?

Maybe u need a sound driver to be installed. Like I needed the [realtek...] audio driver so that when I plug my headphones in, i can hear something through them Because when the driver wasn't launched, I couldn't hear a thing when connect and switch to my headphones

I can hear through my headphones, it's just that I can't hear both game audio and vc both through headphones at the same time. I can hear just vc through headphones and set game audio to speakers and it works just fine. But if this were the case, how would I know what i need to download or check if the thingy is up to date? There's no popups on my homescreen and my windows version is up to date.

Didu try to relaunch ur game? When I was playing cs:go, I couldn't hear a thing through my headphones before I relaunched it. And I still could speak to my classmate by discord and hear him through the Discord

Oh i've had this problem for months now. It happens with every game and also with discord. I've restarted all my games, even restarted my computer, dozens of times at this point.

I can be playing a game and I hear the audio thru my headphones just fine. And then I join a call like discord or in game VC, and instantly the game audio goes silent but I can hear the people talking.
