Greetings,
Amusingly usually it's the other way around (people complaining about the quality of the cam
mic). What kind of headset are we talking about here? There's no "known issue" here for
anything like what you're describing.
Although you can check your UPnP status by pressing the Alt key on the keyboard to bring up
the menu bar, choosing Tools, then Options, then Connection (and waiting for it to populate
the data), that won't tell you if it's actually being used in a call. If a relay is being
used, typically you'll see a message in the top of the conversation window telling you that
the quality has been reduced.
However, to be 100% sure you'll have to use tcpview, netstat, or a packet sniffering
application and look for your contact's IP.
