Headset microphone not detected

[halcyon pelican]

Good evening, I hope you are all doing well.
I just did a fresh install of Linux Mint on this computer and I'm trying to join voice chat with a buddy while I'm setting it up. When I joined the call though, he told me that I sounded like I was underwater, and that my mic quality is awful.
Upon further investigation, I found out that Discord was using my Laptop microphone, not my headset microphone. In fact, Linux Mint isn't detecting my headset microphone at all; in neither the System Settings nor in PulseAudio Volume Control.

I've already updated everything to my knowledge, but it's been a very long time since I've used Linux, so I may be missing something. Can anyone assist with this issue?

The headset in question is a Razer Kraken Wired headset. It's not USB based, instead it uses a combo audio and microphone AUX adapter. I can try to find the model of it if needed.

Thanks in advanced.

so the pc jack is 4-pin combo for headset, and the headselt is 4-pin TRRS 3.5mm?

Correct.
I have Windows running on a dual boot as well, and it works just fine on Windows.

Also, I lied in the original post it seems- it's a Razer BlackShark.

This is the headset.

The laptop is an Asus ROG Strix

what does pavucontrol show?

the config tab should be on analog duplex

the input tab should be on analog built-in audio (jack)

You'll have to bear with me if this isn't what you're asking for.

It continues to show this, even with the headset unplugged.

that's the one

else it would say 'internal mic'

and the issue lies with the OS not detecting the state of the jack or circuit

nothing u can do really

except use a USB dongle
