Audio only working if directly facing computer. If head is turned away, to side, if look down the audio drops to a level that can not be made out.

Many microphones are designed to only pick up sound from right in front of the mic. Moving to the dude will almost always affect the sound volume – some mics will pick up some sound from the side, but rarely as much as it will head-on.
If head position will vary a lot, I recommend getting a headset with a built-in mic.
