There could be several things with the mike muted.
1. If the Jaws output has ben re-routed to a headset such as by
opening Jaws with Insert J then going to Utilities and then to Sound
Card it could be Skype is configured to use that headset and perhaps
the mic part is muted only allowing the Jaws to come through.
Could be Jaws is set up to output to an external card with no mike in
it or volume turned down or shut off on the unit
Could be the Windoes settings for audio output have been changed
globally to a different card doing similar
Could be the Volume control is set to "What I hear" and microphone
muted only allowing the Jaws to come through.
Really needs to be more info to problem solve it.
For instance in my case I use a M Audio device as a sound card for my
system sounds, playing CDs, etc. and a headset hooked to the Sound
Blaster Sound Card adapter for Jaws. However sometimes I want both to
come through my headset. So I'll go to Windows Control Panel/Sounds
And Audio Devices and change the default from M Audio to Sound
Blaster. Opposite to what I want Jaws comes out the M Audio device
with the system sounds. I then go to Jaws and set it to use the Sound
Blaster as the previous change toggles the Jaws one without my doing
anything and then it is fine :).
So these things can do unpredictable things :). Plus Skype is
configurable to use different than your system default
speaker/headset and there are recording levels in there to check as well.

Well the mic can't be muted because JAWS can be heard. If your test
call worked all right, I have no idea what's going on then.

Hi,
I rarily use skipe so please excuse the stupid question.
I just made a skipe call and when I did, the person could hear my
jaws, pretty much everything I am typing but they cannot hear me
when I
talk.
What is going on? If someone tells me to look at some settings,
please be very specific cuzz again, I hardly ever use skipe, so just
spell it out for me.
I am using skipe 5.1 .
Thanks.
