Great questions. The port is infact a mic/headphones 2-in-1 thing. Is there a hardware piece to work around this? DS port works fine. Headset lets me jam to Pokemon Music no problem

Sure buy a usb sound card like this , and use the pink port https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sabrent-Extern ... sou&sr=8-3

Okay, I can definitely give something of this nature a shot. I'm afraid when I do this it will still record from the DS mic. I'm not sure if there's a way to switch the input from DS mic to DS audio. I'll grab this tomorrow and come back to share results

Are you sure it wasn’t picked up from the laptops built in mic from the webcam because I didn’t think it was possible for the mic to output directly to the headphone port

*** because If you rewatch the video even the elgato looks like it’s acting like a mic input

Yeah, that doesn't make sense. The DS mic doesn't work like that.
I think maybe that "special" cable of yours has a built in mic, and that's what your computer is picking up.

100% sure? no. Pretty damn sure? Yeah.

I tested in OBS with the only sources being the Video Source as the game, and the audio source also as the game. Unless somehow the DS Capture application is using the computer mic, I don't know.

I've also tried two more non-special aux cables today. I'm almost entirely certain the issue is a setting on the pc and not the DS or cable, but I'm no expert.
Edit: You are correct, the aux cable I was using in the video does have a mic in it. I tested a recording with a dif aux right now and no mic audio is coming anymore, but neither is the game. You can hear in the recording where the line gets plugged in though.

It's your cable. Your computer has a combo (headset out / mic in) port.

You can get something like this. Or the USB one evolution219 linked to.
Both are made for mic (mono) input so you might want to shop around for something better (usb adapter w/ stereo line in).

Right on, bought it. I’ll try anything.

Also note that that same port accepts the mic from my A10’s, which I use to voice over videos and everything else. I’ll give this thread a shout once I receive it. Thanks!

The nice thing is most games have the choice to choose mono output in their options if you’re using something like the USB adapter so you and your audience can still hear all of the sound it just won’t be directional, I just like the cheaper option to get going you can always buy a better stereo adapter down the line

Suggestion for stereo input is something like this ,
