3- HOWEVER!, I had a USB mic and playback DOESN'T work with USB microphone. When you plug in a USB device like this your computer hands over control of all sound services to the USB device - both input and output. Since you USB mic doesn't have a set of speakers, you then don't get any sound from t...
