If you're having trouble with your mic in CS:GO, just switch it in your computer's sound settings. Right-click on the sound icon in your taskbar, go to 'Recording devices', and set your preferred mic as the default device. CS:GO should automatically use whatever you've set as default.

Changing your mic in CS:GO is pretty straightforward. Just go to your Steam Settings > Voice > Microphone, and select the input device you want to use. Make sure you've got the right one selected and do a quick test to see if it's working. Sometimes, you might need to restart CS:GO or even your whole computer if it doesn't pick up the change right away.

Honestly, just unplug your other mics. CS:GO tends to grab the first one it sees, which is usually your default device. But if you're not using multiple mics, why complicate things? Keep it simple.
