I'm currently Playing "Mario and Luigi: Bowser's inside story", and there are some parts of the game I simply cannot do without the use of blowing into the mic. I've tried to follow the tutorials on this, but it doesn't seem to work. I set a new keybind for microphone, I set that keybind to play the downloaded desume blowing sound, I hold the button, but it still doesn't seem to affect the game in the slightest. Any advice?

(Additionally, what do the different colors of the microphone symbol mean?)
