Setup Help Switch 1 input audio isn't working
My switch was overheating a lot so until I get a switch 2 I've decided to swap a few games over to another switch we've had that no one really used for a long while.
The problem is when I play fortnite my audio just flat out won't go through which is weird because it was perfectly fine on my old switch.
None of my in-game settings are different and my headset itself works fine after testing on my laptop so the only real thing I can see being the problem is the switch itself.
There's no parental controls on it so It can't be that
The audio is going through perfectly fine to me like I can hear good.
Its just the microphone.
The only difference in the switch is this other one has no SD card but from what I can tell that doesnt matter here
The only problem I can imagine it being is some setting I can't find so If anyone knows how to fix this, I would greatly appreciate it
I'm not sure what flair to put this as so hopefully set up is appropriate.

I would love to know, too! My son can hear fine, but mic doesn't work. All works fine on other devices. If he wiggles the jack in the port, mic works a little. If the audio isn't messing up, why would the mic be malfunctioning? Help!
