I was using my HyperX cloud 2 headset to talk to my friends when it randomly stopped recording sound. I do not believe the issue to be with the headset as I have tried it with other devices and the microphone works fine. I can also hear audio fine, my laptop just doesn't seem to pick up any sound input

Any suggestions on how to solve this :(
 
Solution
Look at your audio settings first and then reinstall the audio drivers if this does not work.

Alternatively you may have damaged the audio socket.
