mac mini m2 microphone not working over Citrix I recently got a mac mini m2 (macOS Ventura 13.3.1). While connecting to my office workstation via Citrix Workspace I found out that the microphone doesn't work. I'm using a Plantronics Blackwire 5220 series headset with microphone which works well for me at work. On the Mac, i'm able to verify that both audio output and input work well with this device. Its only when connecting via Citrix that the audio input (microphone) stops working. Is anyone aware of the issue and possible workarounds ?

USB headset's microphone doesn't work on MS Teams for Mac I have a problem with my work MacBook Air M1 (Ventura 13.6.1) audio in Microsoft Teams Classic. When I connect a USB-C headset (Poly Blackwire 3225) no one can hear me speaking via MS Teams app. The headset is visible in macOS, and I can see levels moving in System Preferences when I speak to its microphone. The headset is also selectable in MS Teams settings but mic levels are not moving at all. Here's what I checked/tried: I tried other communication apps: e.g Zoom, and Discord, and it works fine. I tried to use MS Teams via browser (Chrome) and it works perfectly so it seems to be related to the MS Teams desktop app. I checked Privacy & Security > Microphone. I've reinstalled MS Teams Classic. I used CleanMyMac X to clean junk and reset MS Teams settings. Just in case, I asked my company for a new headset and nothing has changed. The problem first occurred 3-4 weeks ago and I'm constantly winning and losing this battle. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Mostly not. I'm unable to find and document any specific conditions under which people can hear me. Have you heard about any issue like this?

Mac Studio & Rode NT-USB Mini Support Issue Why is my RODE NT-USB Mini Mic not working right at all on my M1 Max Mac Studio but works just fine on my older 2020 M1 MacBook Pro 13"??? When creating a Voice Memo, GarageBand recording, or anything else on my M1 MacBook Pro using the NT-usb Mini, it sounds perfectly fine. When attaching it to the M1 Max Mac Studio I get about 10 seconds or less of normal sounding recorded input until it begins to repeat 1 seconds worth of the most recent microphone input on a loop with added crackling sounds, starting at about 10 seconds the entire recording. I have plugged the mic into the Mac Studio with direct USB-C cables along with dongles. I've already spoken with RODE and we have updated the mic's firmware and it is fully updated to the latest along with restoring it to factory settings and restarting everything and making sure the mic is the primary input device, as well but it will still continue to loop audio, sound crackling, and not work right at all on the Mac Studio. It works perfectly fine on the M1 MacBook Pro. Help please! - Brian
