Instead of using my headphone/earphone for audio input garuda is for some reason picking up audio from the inbuilt mic of my laptop.
I tried searching in archwiki but the solution mentioned there required pulse audio, my device is however using pipewire-pulse and i was unable to fix the issue using wiki. i tried uninstalling pipewire-pulse to install pulseaudio but it was a dependency for pipewire-support which in turn is a dependency for something else so I am basically stuck, any help is appreciated.
To add, earlier the microphone was picking a lot of static up as well, changing profile in recording devices of audio setting to 'pro audio' from 'analog stereo duplex' fixed the static issue, for reference I am running garuda on a lenovo ideapad 520.
Just post your garuda-inxi as text, please.

If your headset has a 3.5mm jack, depending on your device sometimes ALSA assumes they are just headphones. On my laptop it was necessary to make a little config file to fix this.
sudo micro /etc/modprobe.d/headset.conf
It doesn't have to be named "headset", but it does have to end in ".conf" to work. It will be an empty file, just add this line:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-headset-multi
Exit, save, reboot and try again.
If the device is being recognized correctly but is just not being used by the application you are running, this is where I would start: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture/Troubleshooting - ArchWiki

fixed the issue using hdajackretask, used it to override inbuilt microphone and disable it in realtek audio codec and totally stop it from being used, after that pulseaudio/pipewire automatically started using duplex earphones for input.
con is that the internal microphone is totally disabled now, will need to enable it again and reboot to use it
leaving this comment here as a solution for someone else who might encounter this issue
thank you for taking the time to respond, after a lot of tinkering i found the solution regardless, i have left the solution as a reply in case someone else has the same issue
