[Help - Software] No sound from youtube,streams and such when I do skype

[Matt~]

Hey guys, I kinda messed up yesterday lmao I was doing skype and my friends told me my mic was too quiet so I went ahead and clicked some random buttons in sound controlls, and now when I do skype and i put on a youtube clip I cant hear the youtube sound. Thats about it.

Extra info I have no idea if you need, My headset is wireless (USB based) & when I play League of Legends And do skype at the same time I hear both programs sounds.

All help is very appreciated

Uh, have you tried turning the volume for the mic back up?

Well, there was no input increase but that isnt the real problem now since i kinda wanna do youtube and skype at the same time, skype somehow removes all other sounds...

If I understand correctly, your problem is that when you start a call with Skype, YouTube just mutes. This behaviour can be controlled from the Communications tab (in Windows 7) inside the Sound settings window. The default option is "Reduce the volume of other sounds by 80%", while you probably have it set to "Mute all other sounds".
I'm not sure if this is the reason since "hitting random buttons in your sound settings window" helps me as much as teling me just "blue", where I have absolutely no idea what to associate the color with, but still hope it will help you.
