Microphone Problem
Megiddo:
Why not try taking out all your addons and adding them back in one by one to see which is causing it?
delirium_trigger:
Tried that, I even cleared out my entire Addons folder and it still was doing it. I'm guessing maybe its a feature of Garry's Mod that is triggered because of an inferior codec that rejects my bandwidth and tries to compensate by muting as a fail safe. I can't think of any other logical reason behind it. I even verified integrity of the game cache just to get all the bases covered. It still does it. ???
Megiddo:
Do you have anything in your garrysmod/lua/autorun folder? Some of those files are garry-files that need to be there, but try clearing it out anyways and seeing if you have the same problem (clear out the 'server' folder within 'autorun' as well).

98.9% unlikely.
Steam/Source games use few codecs by default. My theory was just a possibility, and would NOT mute them in game.
It would just make them sound choppy during actual game play... it wouldn't mute them.
Now that you've given the fact they are actually being muted in Gmod, not just randoml silence..codecs wouldn't be at fault for that.
Also, besides what Megiddo is asking, are you running a listen server (server started in gmod?)
Or are you running a dedicated (srcds.exe) game?
If dedicated, can the players still hear each other, just not you?
If that's the case, it's not your server, it's your local copy...some lua or exploit muting it.

It happens to everybody not just me. I just did a sweep of my entire Garry's Mod folder after thinking about what you guys have been saying and I found out that the problem is the game mode I was hosting. I downloaded a Jail role playing game mode and there's something in that folder that causes mutes when I host. I hosted sandbox just now and there were no muting problems at all.
Thank you very much guys you have been a great deal of help. You guys respond on the same day while Facepunch still hasn't replied in 3 days. Do you guys accept donations because I think you guys deserve it.
