Microphone is not as good as on Windows

Greetings. So I’m using dual-boot with Windows 11 and have no issues with it. But the thing I noticed is that on Windows my friends could hear my voice better on Discord rather than on Garuda. I wanna make sure that I don’t use any external microphone (built-in laptop mic) and I don’t use any 3rd party software for it (Just the stuff discord has built-in).

Open issue on Github, please.

I would, but i don’t think it’s Discord-related problem. Cuz the same happens when I talk via Telegram or other voip service.

Make sure your correct microphone is selected from the settings app.
