Sound from earphone speaker gets recoded with mic.

I use a 3.5 mm jack earphone. When I open sound configuration ultilty, i can clearly see that if I play any sound, eg music , its also recoded that means volume increses as im heard.

I dont know how to explain it...

I have searched so much in web and couldnt find answer.

If i do arecord and record audio then i can see that what im hearing is also recorded..

Its a earphone so no sound is leaking to mic.. Any way not upto this level.

I can hardly hear my sound in it..

How to disable it.

Even with internal mic in my laptop it captures like that, I thought it was picking up audio from speakers but now i know its not the case here

Please help me ;-), if any resoureses needed i will provide.. I dont know what to provide thats why...

How did you install Arch? What DE are you using? What sound system? What "sound configuration utility" are you referring to?

Re: Sound from earphone speaker gets recoded with mic.

Are you having one of your sinks set to a monitor source? What is the output of

pacmd list-cards
pacmd list-sinks
pacmd list-sink-inputs
pacmd list-sources
pacmd list-source-outputs
