I am not sure if this is a device specific issue or a general one but my pixel 4 xl when using a type c earphones during calls, I can hear my own voice through the earphones that I speak through the microphone. Whatever I speak is projected to the person on the other end as well as to me as well. The issue is present only when the earphones are connected, I have tried two different earphones and both work fine on another phone. Does anyone else has this issue? If yes did you manage to correct it and how?

I hate making new threads but I can't seem to find an answer. Maybe I'm using the wrong keywords.
I use my N1 in my car alot. It's my main source for my music and hand's free calling while driving. I use the aux jack on my stereo to the N1 for music.
When I get a call it would ring though the speakers and I would touch the slider to accept the call. The caller would hear me crystal clear and I would hear them though the speakers just fine.
Now when I get a call, they can't hear me. They say I sound like I'm far far away. I can hear them just fine. But I look like a madman in my car screaming and yelling just to be heard.
So what I have to do now, is answer the call, and touch speaker, which only plays the voice though the speaker phone. They hear me crystal clear but sound is no longer going to the car speakers.
Anybody have this problem or know what's causing it or even a push in the right direction?
I have this excact same problem.
I came from a milestone using a standard 3.5mm audio jack and calls went really well. But when i tried my nexus, i got the same response, "sounds liek your far away".
I tried a few AUX cables but they all seem to do the same thing. So my solution was a aux cable with a built in mic.
I ended up modding the headphones that came with my nexus to get this working. Removed the earbuds and soldered a 3.5mm jack.
Now when i talk using that cable with a built in mic, ppl hear me very clearly. So i've jsut been using that cable since. I'm sure you can buy a premade aux cable with a mic at any local mobile audio store. I saw one at a BestBuy mobile here.
Hope this helps.
but the issue is that at one point it DID work normal with his nexus. i think what is going on here is the phone originally read the aux input as just standard audio output. but now its reading it differently somehow, i just dont know why. its almost like the difference when a phone thinks you have headset connected vs audio out connected with no mic support. no idea on a solution though...

I was thinking on buying the Belkin one with the mic right at the aux jack.
Hope this helps.

Exactly, it DID work. I can't pin point when it happened for me. I was thinking maybe it was when I went from Eclair to Froyo?
I'm almost positive that using the phone over Aux out broken with the update to Froyo. Has anyone tried this yet with Gingerbread on the N1 or with an NS? I'm hoping they fixed this, it's a really, really frustrating problem.
My fear is that everyone at Google got free car docks so they won't ever fix it because it's never a problem for them.
I also have the exact same problem. Thought it never worked for me, I only recently sets up my car mount with aux. Anybody found a solution?
Has anybody had audio quality issues with the headphone jack on the Nexus 6? I've had two different Nexus 6 units and both of them have static when audio is playing through the headphones, and some, but not all audio is distorted. I've tried a couple different headphones as well but they both have the issue. Should I RMA again, or should I keep my current device and try to find a solution myself? Thanks.
I havent found any info on this directly on any of the forums.. But anyone tried using USB-C headphones/buds with their Note 8? My Xiaomi USB-C (with NC) ones just rocked up and tried it on the Note 8. Works fine with music and NC is working.. But no sound for voice calls? Tried VOIP calls too and depending on the method of VOIP, it may or may not work. Just seems Call does not route it to the USB-C as such but Media does.
I have the same issue as you bchliu. I own a pair of JBL Reflect Aware C usb-c headphones and they too work great while playing music, but voice calls are played through the internal speaker.
I wonder what we can do to resolve this?

Could be the model of headphone you got. I know some companies that where doing USB-C headphone would only work with certain phones. And some features wouldn't work either. I doubt JBL would do that, but you never know. Google a lil bit might find answer.
That's what kept me away from USB-C headphones. Sticking to jack and bluetooth. But I think USB-C may be the future for is multiple uses.
Why USB C Audio and /or calls do not work.
Its all about Digital vs Analog.
A phone either...
1. Converts both audio and voice to analog.
2. Converts only audio.
3. Converts neither.
Most phones only either do 2 or 3.
Now apparently, you can use a dongle for audio if your phone falls under #3, but idk why they have usb c voice disabled on the phone itself. Apparently the note 10 and newer ones support it though. They fall under #1
The headphones work fine when I am using for listening to music or audiobook. However, if the phone rings for receiving/making the call, there is no sound via headphones. Is there any setting which I am missing or the headphones are not compatible with phone calls?

Just to add to this. I also noticed this yesterday while using my Google Type C headphones. I wonder if it has to do with OTG? On my 1+6 I had to enable OTG every time I wanted to use the headphones.

I have found similar issue posted on samsung S9 phone forum. Seems it is an issue and there is no fix.
I have Red Magic 3s globale. And i use wireless EarPods when playing PUBG. The problem is my sound is not clear to others in the game because i cover the mic of the RM3S with my hand when playing, it should not work once I connect the EarPods. I tried different EarPods. How can i solve this issue please help.
The mic should be automatically be set as per your headphones or airpods make sure your mic works fine by checking it on calls

It works fine, I tried 3 different EarPods all brand new.
Based on my research the phone should automatically change the mic to your headsets, if it doesn't work try and contact the red magic team via Facebook or their website
