Using AirPod Pros when on the Mac - Mic is constantly picking up and playing back sound

Ok, I’ve been sick the last few days, so I can be missing something, but have also been using my AirPod Pros as headphones for my MBP. Lately, when watching a movie (as an example) or just now as I type this post, my headphones are picking up sound from the mic. Of course, there’s a delay. So if I’m watching a movie, cough, I can expect to hear that cough in my headphones, etc.

I can’t seem to find a way to turn off the mic without also turning off other sounds.

Not sure if I’ve done something wrong or if I have a wonky setting somewhere… Advice? Sorry, a little wonked out because I’ve been fairly sick the last 4-5 days.

Figured it out. Apparently it was a LoopBack setting. Duh.

Sick brain.
