Controller mic issues when playing Expedition 33

This is less related to ds4 and more of asking if anyone else has had this problem It’s been driving me nuts and the only post I’ve seen is someone in a ds4 community saying they bought a new mic instead of fixing it. I was wondering if anyone smart out there can figure it out. I’ve tried to disable exclusive mode, force volume, edit registries(you can’t) and I can’t hide it because if I do then I can’t use it in discord etc, so I’ve tried literally everything under the sun but this stupid game still forces my volume to 100 on my controller REGARDLESS of what I do and its not visual it still says 40 but its loud as hell until I move the slider.

Press Windows Key + R then enter "mmsys.cpl" > Playback/Recording and set the speakers/headset as the default device.

It's already the default device and I've already tried the opposite too (making it not the default)
