Steam's not recognizing my mic. Was working fine last night, CSGO, and steam chat aren't working, TS and skype are.

Set as default communication device

Corsair V2100's.

 

Tried

Turning it off and back on

Restarting PC

Restarting Steam

Unplug USB Dongle and replugging

 

It's not working with any of my mics, not even my webcam. I can enable them, no audio.

 

I have the Mic selected in Steam.

Go to:  Steam Settings > Voice > "Change Device..." or "Detect Audio Devices"

Maybe instead of just "Default Communication Device" you can try setting it as "Default Device" (in Windows).

Do your games have their own audio settings? Or did you mean Steam chat?

Have you tried the microphone tester in the Steam settings?
