The real problem here is not the microphone, per se, but the fact that you
have both your record monitor and your pickup in open air. This causes a
feedback loop (the microphone "hears" what the speakers are playing and sends
it back to the speakers again).
Solution #1: Set the record monitor level to zero. I think the aumix symbol
is "rec", but RTFM to be sure. This will keep the microphone working but stop
playing it over the speakers.
Solution #2: Use headphones to monitor recording. Probably not what you
want to do on a laptop, but very useful, e.g., in a recording studio.
