Razer Kraken causes lag on alt-tab

I've recently installed fresh Windows and faced weird behavior.
When I'm using discord (or any other software, which uses mic) with my razer kraken (connected via usb) and alt-tab back into the game, game freezes for good ten seconds.
What I've tried:
1. Open discord, but not enter voice channel - no lag on alt tab
2. Open discord and enter voice channel - lag on alt tab
3. Use team speak - lag on alt tab
4. Install and launch razer synapse 2 - lag on alt tab
5. Use other usb headset - no lag on alt tab

Hi there! What specific model of the Kraken are you using? Also, do you have Synapse installed? Does the same issue happen if Synapse is closed? Let me know.
I'm not entirely sure, how to find out, which exact model it is, because razer store does not show details of your orders, but I believe, that I have Razer Kraken Black with usb (like this https://www.razer.com/Gaming-Audio/Razer-Kraken/p/RZ04-02830100-R3U1).
I've tried with Synapse installed. Lag happens not depending on whether Synapse is turned on or off.
I found model number on the headset, it's Razer Kraken USB RZ04-0120
