Using a Wired Headset

Setting Audio Inputs and Outputs

When you plug your headset into the Chromebook it should automatically switch to using it for audio output and the microphone. You can verify this by pulling up the sound settings in the system tray.

STEP 1: Open Audio Settings

Open the system tray and click the arrow > next to the volume slider.

STEP 2: Verify or Change Audio Input and Outputs

Your audio output and input settings should be set to Headphone and Mic jack for your headset to be fully functional. Note: If you're using headphones without a mic the Chromebook will automatically still use the internal microphone.

Settings in Zoom

If you're using Zoom, you may need to adjust your audio settings from within the app as well.

Click the ^ arrow next to the mute/unmute button. Ensure Microphone and Speaker settings are both set to "Same as System."
