VoiceAttack not listening at all (Level bar on the main screen is not moving) :
Make sure your microphone is plugged in all the way (this gets me just about every time).
Make sure your microphone switch is on. This is sometimes located on the cord of your headset.
Make sure the volume of your microphone is adequate. Also, make sure that it is not muted in Windows.
Additional places to look :
If you are using Microsoft Windows Vista/7/8, go into Control Panel & run the 'Sound' app.
Select the recording tab. Select your input device (will have a green checkmark next to it).
Go to the levels tab. Make sure the volume is adequate (mine is up all the way). If there is a balance button, click it. Make sure that the microphone channels are at adequate levels (mine are both up all the way).
In XP, go to the 'Sounds and Audio Device Properties' app. Click the 'Audio' tab & make sure the proper device is selected in the drop down list. Click on the 'Volume' button to make adjustments to the volume.
Even more :
If you are using Microsoft Windows Vista / 7 / 8, go into Control Panel and run the 'Speech Recognition Options' app.
Select the 'Set up microphone' link. Follow the instructions indicated to set up your microphone.
Everything seems fine. I don't see any settings inside VA to setup the Microphone. And I also don't see anything to test VA with. Other than just running a profile command, which does nothing.
When I go into my microphone properties, I can actually 'Listen' (by clicking the 'Listen to this device' checkbox. and I hear myself just perfectly. When I go into the 'Setup the Microphone' wizard, I can see the green bar moving exactly middle of the green section. And when I am just looking at the Microphone device on the 'Recording' tab of the Sound window, I can see the green bar go up and down just fine.
So, is Windows 10 porked? Or what could possibly be wrong with this?? Guess I'll try a Reboot now and cross my fingers..
Arggg...

Same problem here, Exiting "Sonic Suite 2" solved the problem. Took me a while to find the solution.
