    Cortana cannot hear me


    Hi,


    I built a new computer and all is good, except that Cortana cannot hear me. I have tried my headset mic and USB mic, both show levels when I speak, but Cortana cannot recognize my voice. I have the following:

    Windows 10 (all up-to-date)

    • Asus RoG Strix X399 eGaming
    • AMD TR x2950
    • 32GB memory
    • Bose QuietComfort 35 II (asheadset)
    • Movo MC1000 USB (directly connected to computer, tried different cables and ports)


    Thoughts?
