Bad Quality USB audio only when connected to certain device

Catalyst 100 works fine on my tower PC, microphone is recognized as digital audio interface and outputs sound correctly.
I unplug the USB from the tower and into my laptop, now microphone is being recognized as standard microphone, 4 channels and output sounds like pink noise.
 

Other than that, Catalyst edit works fine, I can change parameters and presets.

 

Any ideas why this is happening?

I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish.

The following assumes that the Catalyst is the only audio output device.

 

For recording into a DAW (using the Catalyst as interface), I leave the MS Sound Panel settings to the internal sound card on both recording and playback.

This allows me to stream backing tracks from the computer to the Catalyst AUX input and still use the computer's internal mic for whatever.

In my DAW I set the ASIO Driver (DL from Line6) to the Catalyst.

I set one track to USB 1 or 1/2 for processed signal, and another track to 3 or 3/4 for DI signal.

Track/Record Monitor Switch set to AUTO. This prevents the DAW signal from mixing a delayed signal with the LIVE signal when recording.

 

Unless I'm misunderstanding your goal, this should fix it.
