If your mic isn't working in CS:GO, just unplug it and plug it back in. Works every time for me.

First off, check if your mic is properly plugged in and not muted. Sounds basic, but you'd be surprised how often it's the issue. Next, go into CS:GO's settings and make sure your mic is set as the default communication device. Sometimes, the game defaults to something else. If that doesn't work, try restarting CS:GO or your PC. Still no luck? Update your audio drivers; outdated drivers can cause all sorts of weird issues.

Honestly, just use Discord instead. CS:GO's voice chat is so 2012.

Make sure CS:GO has permission to use your microphone, especially if you're on Windows 10. Go into your privacy settings and allow apps to access your microphone. It's a common oversight!
