Ok, I buy Ovann X1-S gaming headphones. It has only one jack and it has 4 sections. but when i put it in my pc, audio works fine. but the mic is not working. not even detected at recording panel on the settings.
 
Solution
You need a 3.5 splitter in order to use the microphone too.
Things like laptops and smartphones use a combo jack, PCs split the audio and microphone.
