Blackshark v3 Pro Displayed as speaker in Windows 11, + Horrible Sound Quality

Recently got a wireless Blackshark v3 Pro headset, but the sound quality has been just terrible. I tried to figure out what was wrong, and noticed that the OS for some reason identifies headset as Speakers. 

 

I’ve already tried uninstalling/reinstalling all possible drivers, Synapse. Tried it multiple times, it didn’t work. 

 

Would appreciate any help. Still have a few days to return it if this headset actually turns out to be not fixable, but would prefer to make it work.

 

P.S.

I had  Blackshark v1 for many years, didn’t expect v3 to be such a huge step back  (more like a huge leap, really).

Hey ​@radioammoSeaFoamGreen344,

Please bear with me for a bit. Can you update the firmware of your headset by downloading from this link? Please also send me a PM with the serial number so I can verify it in our system and look for troubleshooting steps that might address the audio issue you're currently experiencing.
