#41 MicMute stopped working on upgrading to an Asus Xonar SE soundcard.

Greetings and salutations. I have been using MicMute for some time now. Back in the day it was with Fraps to mute my mic when recording videos. As of recent I updated to an Asus Xonar SE from my on board Realtek chipset. Apart of that I set the Devide to "Front Panel Input (Xonar Soundcard) " and now it doesn't work. Yet the mic is plugged into the front panel mic jack. So I have to safely assume that is the Front Panel Input. But when I press the hotkey, Micmute goes flashy, it says Mic Off, but the VU meter for my mic is showing an input in both OBS and SAM Broadcaster. When I play back the video I was recording in OBS I still hear the part I was trying to mute ( be it a cough, sneeze, some idiot interrupting me in the middle of recording, etc) . So I don't know why it would go from working on the onboard sound card to broken with the Xonar but it did.
