    Hey there,
    So I'm using Unity 2017.2.0f3 and apparently choosing the device in Microphone.Start does not work. It ALWAYS uses the default recording device, no matter what I put in.
    Is there a way to fix this without updating my Unity version?

    Hey! We are using 2017.3.1f1 and also encountering that problem. I have no idea since which Unity version this happens because we've only tried using it now. I've submitted a bug report last friday.

    If anyone from Unity can suggest any workaround we would be very thankful!

    Indeed, the folks at Unity linked me to that issue. I was not aware. They told me that "The initial fix will land in Unity 2018.2, but will be backported to 2018.1". :)
