Microphone from external headset not recognized on Acer Aspire v5-552 with Linux Lite 5.2 Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

Hello!
I'm a relatively new user to Linux and I have a problem with the headset mic. It is not recognized by the OS. The headphones audio output works fine, but the microphone isn't not showing in Volume Mixer.
Can you guys, please, help me?
I tried to find on the internet some workarounds but for some of them I couldn't very well understand what I was supposed to do.
I remember that I had this problem on Windows too and I'm not sure but I think I installed a Realtek driver and then it worked. Or I had to select Headset at the prompt which appeared when I plugged in the headset.
And, please, tell me what information do I need to provide.
