External microphone not working on Link
I recently purchased a usb C gooseneck microphone to plug straight into my Quest Pro (v81). It works and sounds great on native quest apps and recordings, but as soon as I use any streaming software ...

steve_40 is correct by the way. Just saw his comment. He's not being rude, just saying it like it is. It's obviously not a link problem, if other streaming software doesn't work either. You framed your comment inaccurately.
I would refer to my recent comment but it keeps disappearing or getting removed (maybe because of the youtube link idk)
Here are the supported formats of the USB Microphone plugged straight into my PC.
When we compare this to the Antlion USB microphone [that works on AirLink or VD], the Antlion has more supported formats and tops out at the quest's native format. (This list also explains why my Antlion will randomly sound low-quality on Virtual Desktop and that's probably because it sometimes chooses one of the lower sample rates).
What is confusing is that the quest natively runs at 16bit 48kHz, and that is supported by this microphone. Is it just choosing the highest of the supported formats (24 bit, 96KHz)? Does AirLink and Virtual Desktop spontaneously combust when you feed them higher formats than what they're locked to?
The question would now be, how do I lock the format of this microphone on my Quest Pro?
