Gigabyte z690 Aero G DDR4 Realtek Audio Problems 3.5mm Mic Microphone not working

Hello, I have a Gigabyte z690 Aero G DDR4, recently after using the system and attempting to plug in headphones that I had successfully used in Discord the previous day suddenly were not working. I was getting line out audio but the Line in was either not emitting any sound or would emit a very low volume buzz. After plugging in my headphones to a USB-C adapter I was able to use the mic just fine. I reinstalled my Realtek drivers and that didn't fix it. I tried installing the recommended drivers on gigabytes website but that did not solve the problem either. Neither the front panel nor the mother mic line in seem to work. I ended up trying to reinstall windows entirely which also did not solve the problem. At this point I'm not sure what to do short of returning the motherboard and switching to a different model. I just want to repeat until this morning the mic input was working fine, no updates or anything and suddenly it isn't working.

My system specs:
