First off, make sure your mic is properly plugged in or connected via Bluetooth. Sounds obvious, but you'd be surprised how often it's just that. Then, jump into CS:GO settings, hit the 'Audio' tab, and check if the 'Enable Voice Communication' option is ticked—this is crucial. Also, make sure your mic is set as the default communication device in Windows sound settings. If it still doesn't work, try restarting CS:GO or your PC.

Honestly, CS:GO can be finicky with mics. If the above doesn't work, check for driver updates for your microphone. Outdated drivers can cause all sorts of chaos.

Quick fix: hit `~` to open console, type 'voice_enable 1' and press enter. Sometimes CS:GO just needs a little nudge to remember you want to chat.
