Windows 10: Headset Micorphone Volume Slider issue.

I was trying to skype a fellow mate when he said he couldent hear me. So i went to my recording devices and saw that my microphone volume was at 0. I tried to turn it up but it just went back to 0. Now its Glitching out between 0 and 5... No idea how to fix this. I plugged the headset into a different USB and nothing. Plugged my webcam in and the same thing happened....

Windows volume control slider does not affect headset

I have a Sony Gold Wireless Headset that I have been using for quite a few months now, and until yesterday they had worked flawlessly. Yesterday, I was messing around with options trying to do something and now the volume slider does not affect the headsets
output volume. It says I am changing the volume for "Sony Headset (Wireless Stereo Headset)" but the volume does not change unless I do it manually on the headset. For months, I was able to control the volume on the PC itself. Any help would be fantastic!

PS, This problem was happening before I upgraded to Windows 10, so the upgrade is not the issue.

 

Nokia Maps voice guidance volume on bluetooth stereo issue

Something else I've just noticed, is that when the handset is bluetooth connected to the stereo it seems to disable the volume slider altogether, because whether I'm trying to adjust the volume on maps or the music player nothing happens until I adjust
it all the way down to mute. Perhaps it's an incompatibility issue with the stereo unit because I also have a stereo bluetooth headset which works perfectly with the volume slider..?
