I have a pixel 6 and a deity v lav. I connect the lav microphone to a 3.5mm to usbc adapter then connect them both to my phone. My phone recognizes the deity v lav as an external headphone instead of a microphone

When I do the exact same thing but connect it to my computer instead there's no issue. Any ideas?

  • Is the USB-C adapter capable of processing microphone signals or does it only support headphones?

What do you exactly mean when saying that your phone only recognizes your microphone as headphones? On my phone (Google Pixel 4a) with my headphones, I am able to select the headphones as microphone as follows:

  • Plug in headphones
  • Start Google Camera
  • Switch to video
  • Hit the settings gear icon on the top
  • The last setting in the popup allows selecting the headphones as microphone, as seen on the picture.

Did you already try those steps? If yes, and it still didn't work, I don't think that there's anything that can be done.
