Your microphone is silent

Foniks found your microphone but heard nothing from it during the test.

How to fix it

  1. Check the mute switch or button on the headset or cable.
  2. In Settings, make sure My microphone is the device you speak into, not a virtual cable.
  3. Run diagnostics again and speak a few words when asked.

On a Mac

  1. In System Settings › Sound › Input, check the input level for that microphone is not at zero.

On Windows

  1. In Settings › System › Sound, open the microphone and check its volume and that it is not disabled.

Still not working?
