Try connecting a 1K resistor across the mic input terminals
of your TRRS plug.  It is likely that your laptop is doing
"jack sensing" and expects a DC circuit while the RigBlaster
has a DC blocking capacitor in its output.

I have struck out everywhere looking for a solution to this issue. When I plug

decoder.

The laptop does have a TRRS jack and I have the Wye adapter.

Is this a hopeless cause? It appears the computer expects the mic to have a 
certain impedence or something along those lines.
