    Chances are you haven't changed the sound settings to use the USB phone as the sound recording device in Ctrl Panel>Sounds and Audio>Voice. Change the sound recording device to USB device.

    You might also need to change the settings within VOIPDiscount.

    I had exactly the same problems as you when I first setup Skype.
    I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.
