So my friends warned me that some people have issues setting up the microphone on a Pimax, but now that I have this issue myself, I'm stuck. Surprisingly googling won't help

I got myself a second hand 8K (non plus, non X), and the mic won't be detected in Windows. It simply doesn't show up as an input device. I tried restarting my PC several times, updating all my drivers, re-connecting, restarting services and power cycling.

Is this a common issue? Is there a common solution? Thanks for help!

Question

For anyone who already has the crystal, does your link cable have 2 usb ports or one?

I was lucky enough to be in the early batch of preorders, and received mine today. The weird thing is all the documentation shows the link cable have a DP port and 2 USB ports on the cable, but mine only came with a DP port and one usb port. Everything is working, but it just seemed kind of strange.
