    So recently my microphone stopped working when playing BF4. I've spent days re-installing audio drivers, screwing around in device manager and anything else I can think of. I was about to open an RMA call with MSI support but first decided to fire up a live version of Ubuntu. I found out that my mic is actually working and it's a Win 8 issue. I don't really want to reinstall the OS so I'm hoping someone here will have an idea I'm missing.
