So, most of you lads are still having trouble getting the mic/input working with basic Windows apps like Skype, Mumble, TeamSpeak, Audacity, etc.
Yet, I've got it working on mine.
Audacity works with the MME, DirectX and WASAPI drivers.
The only other significant configuration differences I can think of is that I have all my USB ports 'selective suspend' and 'allow Windows to power down' settings disabled in Device Manager and Power Options. But, perhaps the biggest difference is the following.
Have you noticed that when booting up after shutting down Windows 10 it's significantly faster than restarting?
This is because when starting from the PC being off Windows 10 uses an accelerated method called fast startup. It basically stores various parts of your machine's memory state in a hibernation file and loads it when you turn on. This is faster than loading the drivers and other system files individually as is the norm.
On my system I disabled hibernation, and consequently fast startup, because I never use it and it leaves a large file (hiberfil.sys) on the disk.
I did this by opening a command prompt and typing: powercfg -h off
You may not want to do this, so instead you may want to just try disabling fast startup via the Control Panel:
This may be connected with gl0ry's boot issue?
Let us know if you have any success with these tweaks.
