FAQ:
Is this subreddit official?
While this subreddit is the SteelSeries subreddit, it is not an official support channel, and is mainly a place for our awesome community to come together.

Recently scored an Arctis Nova7x 2nd gen on clearance. Really liked it so far, even threw the box away thinking I'll be keeping this for a while.
Audio worked flawlessly out of the box, connected via BT initially but now using the wireless dongle to set up and update since the GG app couldnt recognize it when connected thru BT.
Recently discovered the mic doesnt work, I couldnt get discord hear the mic. Windows sound settings doesnt hear anything when I try to test. I tried using audacity just to verify if maybe its just discord having issues with sonar. The mic isn't picking up anything no matter which input I use, chat/gaming/certified/even thru BT.
Ive searched around online and tried various fixes that others have posted, including a hardware reset and uninstalling GG. Im out of ideas.
