Which headset and version of CUE do you currently have installed? Are you having issues with one specific program, or is it in all applications?
Am going to step in on this with my issue.
I own a K95 RGB Platinum, a Scimitar Pro RGB and I decided that what my setup needed was the Void Pro RGB USB.
So, I purchased a Void Pro RGB USB a few days ago, I use comms software alot, normally I have game sounds playing though speakers and only comms over headset.
As the audio on the corsair product was so good that I thought I would try it for comms. Apparently not a good idea.
This headset only picks up my voice when I have the microphone placed in my mouth. I have sidetone on full, I have edited the profile xml to unlock the 25 to 100 (why is this a thing?) so I can now raise the Headset Microphone level in Windows properties.
In Teamspeak I had to lower the sensitivity by -30DB to hear myself on the local test. In Discord more. This is with the microphone touching my lips. In a more sensible and comfortable position I hear nothing. I've basically given up.
I've got 2 other headsets that I've used before, I double checked the settings to make sure I wasn't going crazy, this is by far the quietest microphone.
Putting a microphone in your mouth should never be an answer. My other 2 headsets the mic is below and to the left of my mouth, pick up is fine, external noise levels are fine. I have to SHOUT to make this mic work in the same place with all settings at max.
CUE V 2.20.72, Headset CA-9011154-EU
Pretty much returning the product today at this rate. It's too much money to justify half a device.
Sorry for wall of text, really wanted to love this headset out of the box.
