I'll try to be as precise as I can:
My laptop has only one port used for both microphone and earphones (E.g. speakers or any other audio output) , and when I put in my earbuds I can use them as an output tool, but my microphone stops working. How do I work around this issue without having to buy an extension? I want to use my laptop's built in microphone and use my earbuds (or headphones for output only).
