Booting up any Battlefield game mutes headphones until I close it.

Every time I boot up Battlefield 4/1 it mutes my headphone on all apps on the computer (music, youtube, etc) until I close the game. I know a way to fix it, but it only works with wired headphones and I only really use wireless. If I switch from my headphones to my speaker it works fine but it just doesn't play any audio through my headphones except for "Hands-Free AG Audio" which is for calls and sounds like the dying calls of a speaker set that's been playing bassy songs since the '70s.

SPECS: 

Nvidia GTX 1500 notebook

Intel Core i5-7300HQ @ 2.50GHz

1tb ssd

8gb ram

    Hey @LawlessOffice sounds like you're running into a system issue, testing this right now and not able to recreate it.


    Have you ensured that you have disabled handsfree telephony from within Windows?

    Try this:

    Open Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Devices and Printers

    Find your headset

    Select Properties and go to Services

    Uncheck  “Handsfree Telephony”

    Test game

    This worked for an issue where in multiplayer and some single player games within PVZGW2 you couldn't hear anything on PC when you were in the game, thank you.
