Steve,
The KX3 has a built-in protection against audio overload. If there is
too much audio, it shuts down the audio chain.
Take a look at your mic gain setting on the KX3 - it is best set to
mid-range. The resolution between steps is much greater at the low end
and high end of the mic gain, and you may have difficulty setting for
the proper number of ALC bars (in other words, the gain control is
"touchy"). At mid-range, the steps are smaller and proper adjustment is
easier.
So if you have the mic gain set to a low level, work with the computer
soundcard audio levels and the WSJT-X Power slider (misnamed because it
is really an audio level control) to get them near a mid-position and
allow the KX3 mic gain control will have a better range.

YES, on my KX3.. I have seen (when I change modes, often) that I have
zero ALC (not 4/5 bars). IF I turn the mike gain up, still zero. AT
THIS POINT, I turn the mike gain to zero and start turning it up. The
mike gain was too high and starting over works...
