If you have some trouble on sounds, below, please see the solutions.

1 I Can Hear Others, but They Can’t Hear Me

In most cases, if you can hear your colleagues but they can’t hear you, either your microphone is muted, or not plugged in.

Check Audio Source

Since you can have multiple microphones, it’s important to tell Webex which device you are actually using.

1. While on a conference, select the Audio menu, then select Speaker, Microphone and Camera.
   
2. For Microphone, select the mic you want to use. If your mic isn’t listed, it may not be plugged in.
   The meter just below will light up when you speak, so you can make sure you have the right source selected.

Microphone Connection

Verify your microphone is plugged in securely.AnalogMake sure the microphone is plugged into the Pink audio port.DigitalUSB ports may have more or less power, and sometimes some USB ports don’t have enough power. Try using a different USB port on your computer.

Check Headset Mute

Some headsets have a mute button. Make sure your microphone is not muted by pressing it one time.There is usually a small light next to a mute button; if the light is on, your microphone is muted!

Check Input Volume on Computer

The volume set on your mic may be set low, it’s good to check the settings to be sure it wasn’t changed accidentally.Windows

1. Using your right mouse button, Right click on the speaker in your System Tray, and select Open Sound settings.

Check Mute in Webex

Sometimes this can be set accidentally, so it’s best to check it first.UnmutedMake sure the microphone in the circle at the bottom is not filled in at the bottom.MutedThe microphone at the bottom will be filled in red when you are muted.

2 I Can’t Hear Anybody, but They Can Hear Me

If you’re seeing in text chat that you can be heard, but you can’t hear anyone else, either your sound is muted, turned down too low, or the wrong speaker output is selected in Webex.

Check Audio Source in Webex

Since you can have multiple speakers outputs, it’s important to tell Webex which device you are actually using.

1. While on a conference, select the Audio menu, then select Speaker, Microphone and Camera.
   
2. Make sure the proper Speaker is selected. If your speaker or sound device isn’t listed, then make sure it is connected and on.

Select the Speaker on the top-right of your Menu bar. You can use the slider to adjust the volume.

3 I Hear an Echo, Static or Audio Sounds Bad

If your colleagues mention your audio quality is poor, or the audio you hear sounds bad, there are a few things you can check.

• Use a Headset
  If possible, use a headset. Because your mic will pick up whatever is playing from your speakers, including your colleagues and your voice, it can cause a feedback loop. If possible, switch to using a headset and mic, so your mic won’t pick up the sounds playing.
• Turn Off Other Sources of Audio on Your Computer
  Some audio devices don’t ‘mix’ audio well, and can degrade the quality of everything. Turn off any videos, music, or other audio you may be listening to while on the conference.
• Replug DevicesAnalog DevicesAnalog audio devices connect using a minijack. Both the jack and the port on the computer can end up with little bits of dust which can cause audio to crackle, have static, or drop out. The simple fix is to unplug and replug the device, this removes the dust and tends to fix the problem.USB DevicesUSB Devices aren’t as susceptible to dust, but because of how modern computers work, there could be not enough power on certain USB ports to power the device. Switch to a different USB port on your computer and try again.
• Close Other Programs
  If the audio quality is poor, it’s possible your computer doesn’t have enough power to encode the audio quickly enough because other programs are running in the background. Close the other programs you’re not using on your computer.
• Reboot Your Computer
  If you’re unable to find any programs to close, or if there’s updates waiting to apply on your computer, it’s possible this, too, could cause audio problems. Rebooting your computer can solve these problems.
