TF2: Mic plays when HLDJ key pressed, not music.

1) Does HLDJ launch the game correctly for you?
Yes.

2) Does "HLDJ Loaded Successfully" appear in console on starting the game (with no errors)?
Yes.

3) What is the console output after selecting a song, or issuing other HLDJ commands such as "hldj_next"?
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_b.cfg
Loaded : sample_src

4) After loading one of the sample audio files, perform a search of your Steam directory (without stopping HLDJ) for the file "voice_input.wav" - does it show up, and if so, where?
No, it does not show up.

5) Does voice normally work for you? If not, or you do not have a mic, have you remembered to set up any applicable options in your operating system and/or the game?
Yes, voice does normally work for me.

My problem seems to be that whenever I press the F5 key (which I had assigned as the HLDJ audio play key), or type HLDJ_playaudio in the console, after having already selected a piece of music, my microphone decides to key up instead of the music being played. I've tried playing sample audio files and using proper conversion techniques, but to no avail. The funny thing is that I have no trouble using HLDJ on my desktop computer. Anyone know what might be wrong?

You probably have admin rights on your desktop. Though I would find it odd that you do not on your current system. In either case, I'm hoping the fix will solve the majority of these types of problems.
