Does you PC recognize any other USB device plugged into the same port? Have you tried a different cable?

Windows is not aware that there is a device plugged in to this USB port, that's why you don't get the sound you are used to.

Your USB is dead

Try another USB port. I had this happen twice on two different computers. Needed to change the motherboard in both cases. You can also buy a PCI add on card for USB.
