Default MBox Studio Nothing Heard in Headphones

Been using it all day just fine.

Quite PT, went back in later, and now no audio comes from either PT or any Mac thing like iTunes or YT. If I go to speakers, I hear everything fine. Tried different headphones, tried both headphone jacks, no sound.

In addition, oddly, I notice my mic level is low, and with speakers on , tapping on the mic results in no tapping through the speakers, just on the level meters.

This is not good, have to get up and running. Wondering what dumb thing I could be doing...

Hmm, I would start by turning up the HP knobs(remember that these are encoders, not volume "pots"). Next, make sure DIM or MUTE is not the problem(both buttons light up when engaged). Next, open the MBOX Control window and check routing. The cool thing about all that functionality is its really versatile. The bad thing is its really complex(maybe check youtube for some video tutorials on getting started with MBOX Studio)

If all else fails, open MBox Controll, goto to settings and do a factory reset. That should undo any configuration issues you may be having. If that doesn’t fix it, try a different USB cable.
