    My only pair of headphones has a broken microphone, and when I plug them in the built in one stops working. Is there a way to enable it? There is only one recording device in the audio settings, and I don't see anything in the Realtek settings about it.

    When you're in recording devices, right click and the option to "show disabled devices" should be present. Click on the y50 mic and 'set as default"
