Recently my audio input, from USB headset and USB guitar cable have stopped working. Going into Windows 'Sounds' and enabling 'Listen to this device' outputs the audio as expected; the problem is not with the devices. However, as soon as I try to use them with any other program, discord, for example, no audio input is detected by discord.

I have tried everything I can think of and some suggestions from Googling around;

  • Updating everything - windows, drivers, all related software

  • Rolling windows back to the last build

  • Trying different USB ports

  • Reinstalling drivers and software

  • Running Windows troubleshooters

  • Playing with device properties settings

But nothing seems to work, any suggestions?

Settings > Privacy > Microphone > Let apps use my microphone.

New privacy "feature" in the 2018 Spring update, which of course is off by default.
