Hey Guys/ Girls,

 

I recently build a new rig and I have been experiencing some issues with my microphone. It seems to be cutting out when I play any games. I've tested it playing GTA5, Mafia III and CSGO, at a random period the microphone justs cuts off. This seems to only happen when I have a call on discord application, discord on web browser & skype on whilst playing a game. I've tried turning off all my VOIPs and just using in-game voice chat in GTA5, that worked fine except that my conversation was public and it was difficult to hear each other. When my mic disables I have to open my sound control panel, disable and re-enable my HyperX Cloud II and  the mic works again.

 

I have.....

- Updated all my drivers

- Set my HyperX Cloud II mic to default in the windows settings and on the VOIPs

- Disabled all other audio inputs

- Disabled "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device" in the audio properties

- In communications I've set it to do nothing when windows detects communication

- Disabled USB selective suspend setting

- Downloaded and install all my motherboard drivers

- Use different USB ports

- Tried headset on another computer
- Tried it on the front USB ports and the back

- Restart computer...... etc.

 

 

My Specs Are:

CPU: Intel i5 6600k

Heatsink: Deepcool Gamer Storm Captain 240EX 

RAM: 2x4GB Crucial Ballistix

GPU: ASUS Strix 1060

MOBO: ASUS Z170-AR 

HDD: WD Blue 7200rpm 1TB

PSU: Corsair CX550M

Case: Corsair 400c

Mouse: Logitech G502

Keyboard: Logitech G710+

Headset: HyperX Cloud II

Wireless Adapter: D-Link DWA-171

 

Any help would be appreciated
