Macbook Air desktop Audio Coming through the Microphone.

Hello. I have gotten a Macbook Air late 2013 and the desktop audio keeps coming through the Microphone. I talk to my friends on discord often so its really annoying for them to hear themselfs. I use the apple headphones and have even tried just using the built in microphone. It always comes through mic. It isnt a issue on the microphones picking up the volume. Somethings happening where the mic is putting the desktop audio through it. Anyone know how to fix?????????????????????????

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15
