Why can't I hear calls through my USB-C headphones?

[GuyWithRootedPhone]

When I'm playing music it sounds fine and I can hear all of the system sounds and etc. but I can't seem to hear myself or the other caller when I'm using the phone app.

Got the Xiaomi Noise Cancellation In-ear Earphones Type-C headphones by the way.

So... Is it the headphones' fault or is it the phone's fault? And if it is the phone's fault, what do I do to fix it?

Do you have a music manager, eg Viper, or the like. Perhaps if you do, the headphone profile is off/not activated, or if you have multiple music managers/equalizers there may be a conflict.

I'm using VLC with an equalizer preset. Could that be the problem?

Is that the only equalizer?


I've had conflicts with sound out when I've had OEM music app w/equalizer, DoubleTwist and or Viper.

I had to make sure to only have one operational.

Why don't you uninstall it? In this way you can isolate the issue further.

That is it. OEM one is greyed out for some reason.

So I did some bumming around. I don't think it's the equalizer that's the problem. I think the phone app is incapable of routing calls through USB-C.

Any way that can be done?

I would also like to know the answer. I have new Pixel USB-C headphones that work for all other audio except call audio

exact same problem here with Creative SXFI Trio

Any workarounds?
