   The submect line says it all!   
      
   whatsapp "could not find a connected microphone"   
      
   Whatsapp for win11, fully updated including 25H2. Since I'm asking you   
   to speculate, I'm sending this to win10 too.  They speculate as well as   
   11 people do!   
      
   I've checked my permissions and of course the microphone is permitted or   
   audio calls would not work. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. After   
   reinstalling, when I tried to make a video call it gave me the same   
   message, "whatsapp could not find a connected microphone" and when I   
   tried an audio call it said it needed permission to use the microphone,   
   and provided a button to grant itself permission. I did that, but then   
   the video call *still* said it was not connected to the microphone. How   
   can that be? At least how can it be for me and not everyone? Isn't being   
   connected a sort of base-line status that's established when a program   
   is loaded and before one tries to make a call?   
      
   I'm not sure I've ever made a video call. I have received one and the   
   audio worked fine then. That was several weeks ago. I can ask someone to   
   video call me again if you want to know what happens.
