Trying to find a mike for my MacPro
Like many other people, lately I have been trying to do Zoom, Google Hangout, and so on. I got a HyperX Cloud II headset with a mike, which has a USB connector. The headset can be selected by System Preferences and the input and output volumes set, but I can only hear and not speak. When I go to Zoom Test Meeting, I click on the Join Audio button but it remains unjoined. Then when I go to System Preferences again, the mike has been automatically muted! Any ideas? I am open to getting a different mike if needed.
In real life, I have done a few Zoom meetings over the MacPro and I can see and hear, but I cannot be heard or seen (the latter is not a surprise, as I don't have a camera connected to the MacPro).
Mac Pro, macOS 10.14
