Good luck!
Right - in the Oculus Rift though it has a built-in microphone as well as the headphones, so the settings for both point at the same device.
Speaking of that though, I did try to move the sound in PE into my other headphones while trying to troubleshoot this, just to see if it was an issue with the Oculus. Same issue - no ATC out of those other headphones either.
I am suddenly getting a "voice disable" when I connect to PE plugin. I can hear the ATIS from Xplanwe and microphone works for other plugins namely "planecommand". I will note that Windows 10 performed an update last night. I checked the PE preferences and had to change the audio to my Logitech 540 headset. I see comments about having the headset connected before starting Xplane and or the PE plugin. I checked the Windows setting for sound and all is working. I am including my PE_out.txt below. Could not include it as an attachment. Appreciate guidance to resolve this. WRS2

Delete your VSProSound.ini from the PilotEdge\VSPro Resources folder. The windows update likely altered the signature of your audio drivers (this never used to be a thing...now suddenly it's a thing in windows 10), rendering the plugin slightly lost with regards to the previous devices that it swore were there.
I'm going to update the plugin when I can to better handle this case.
Thanks for the assistance. I deleted the INI sound file and now the PE sound is back online for me. That resolved the issue. Will keep that in mind following future Windows10 updates. WRS2
