Yeti microphones no longer working

I am on Windows 11 Pro, version 24H2, OS build 26100.863 on the Insider beta channel on a intel plattform.

After the summer I should do a teams-meeting, but Teams said that my mic was not working (Yeti Blue), I tried another Yeti (Yeti GX) which not worked either. I tried then to use the mic in my Logitech Brio camera and that worked fine. I have tested both Yeti mics on other pcs and they work there. 

The only difference I see is in in "System > Sound > Properties - Input settings" is that the Format parameter is missing (on the Brio it says "2 channels, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality"). Why is the format missing on the Yetis? How could I get it in there?

Any suggestions to what that could be wrong? Is there a known issue with the current build? I have never had these kinds of problems with the mics before. 

Thanks in advance for any advice!

    Try connecting your Yeti microphone to different USB ports. Sometimes USB ports can provide inconsistent power or data transfer capabilities. Make sure you're plugging into a USB 3.0 port if available.

      Thank you for your feedback. I have already tried different USB ports regrettably with no luck. What I need to understand is where the data in the Input Format part comes from. The problem seems to be there.
