my laptop (HP compaq nc4830 with win8) has two microphone drivers. in sound (in conrol panel) there are two microphone drivers. one only works with built-in mic another only with headset. so to use one I have to switch the default from one driver to another. Why is that?
shouldn't windows do this automatically.

Thank you,

A.

That's strange, they should be tied together as a single audio program that can access either driver. So that when an audio jack is recognised it'll only play through it and when it's removed it'll play through the laptop speakers.
