Bizzare Blue Snowball Windows 10 issue

[MJBYTTV]

Alright, so for those who don't know, the Blue Snowball is a Plug and Play microphone. On my old PC, it worked perfectly fine on Windows 10.

 

I play rocket league and Skype.

 

Whenever I plug-in or press any of the buttons on the PS4 controller, the Mic stops working.

 

Any clues?

 

Thanks

usb chipset drivers?

usb chipset drivers?

 

I was thinking this was a possibility, but just installed them again, and yet again, issue persists.

Further testing:

If a USB device is plugged in to any port, the Microphone stops working for perhaps around 1 minute or so, then becomes functional.

 

Launching Rocket League also stops the Microphone from working.

Not that this will help you but I had sort of a similar issue with my PS3 a while back. Every time I put my iPhone 4 in its charging dock, my PS3 would turn on. The phone had bluetooth off but it still happened. No idea why, never solved it. I unplugged the PS3 and it has been on since. So, yeah...

I often have a problem with my Snowball when I play any steam game. Steam seems to disagree with it, so every time I launch one of the many unhappy steam games, I have to go to Control Panel > Sound > Recording > Snowball Properties > Levels and then Mute and Unmute and it usually fixes the problem. Not sure if it will work the same way for you, but good luck!
