Oddly rude but as I've already explained it works perfectly fine on native apps including VRChat and the built-in recorder. The only place it doesn't work is AirLink, Steam Link, or Virtual Desktop. And even with the Antlion it's a coin flip on whether or not it wants to use the full bit-depth of the microphone or sound like bluetooth headset.
If you can hear everything OK on the native apps, that's at least a plus, but not with the pc stuff, it's likely a problem with your microphone software or it's capability. You should definitely contact the microphone manufacturer for advice but first check your pc settings and permissions. Maybe you need to change something there.
