As someone who also has auditory processing issues, Zoom is the absolute worst. It compresses speech by a massive amount and adds back very little comfort noise, and for me anything above whisper-quiet is like a jackhammer to the head. If I've been on a Zoom call with anyone here and I've seemed more than usually spacey, that's the reason. I haven't found MacBooks to be very good at driving higher impedance headsets. They make a terrible job of driving my old Sennheisers. They are expecting to drive tiny earbuds, not a proper headset. There are 3.5 mm TRRS to separate headphone/mic channel adapters. Canada Computers have this one for $5: https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=5_3933_4382&item_id=180313 Stewart
