Remote PC USB Headset Problem

edited June 2020 in FLEX-6000 Signature Series
I am using a Win10 Notebook to connect to my 6600 remotely. Using a USB headset. In testing using Win Sound Control panel and other apps on the notebook, the mic on the headset is working. But when using SSDR I get no RF out when transmitting. 
- I have PC Audio and PC Mic selected. 
- I am using the MOX button to key the mic. Tried using Vox but also does not work.
- Have read thru the archives but not found anything to solve my issue.

Has anyone else worked thru this problem and found a solution ??

    Bill - hadn't thought about the TX Band settings on the SSDR install on the laptop. No none of the boxes were checked. Which column should be selected for the USB mic?

    PC audio for RX and PC for MIC 
    Make sure in Windows sound manager you can see on the MIC settings audio on the bar when you talk on the headset MIC

    Bret - I do see movement on the USB mic Vu meter bar in the Windows Sound Control Panel,   when I key Tx  using MOX.  But not seeing any movement on the RF Power meter.

    Bret - Bingo, that was the fix. Turned off DAX on notebook SSDR and now the the USB headset mic is working. Thank you very much. I believe I did see then in one of the archived postings but it didn't relate at the time. 

    Tnx agn & 73
