A few more interesting tidbits of info I found that may help or might complicate troubleshooting.
-- From a review of the Asus motherboard's audio system: "When recording an audio sample, with the microphone boost option enabled, the audio sample playback was clear and relatively distortion-free. With the option disabled, we got a barely audible sample. Although, to its credit, there wasn’t any perceivable distortion there." Michael Barnes mentioned HAM users giving this headset good reviews. On this ham radio forum, https://www.eham.net/reviews/view-product?id=7494 ,there are 2 comments regarding the microphone, one states poor mic performance and the other one talks about problems with the min jack connectivity issues and rewiring it.
