Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately you have given ZERO information to work with.
Perhaps the mic model, the recorder workflow, the MediaInfo of the file.
You must give us something, or it's like stating that your automobile is going "clang clang ickity clonk", can you tell me what's wrong? HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)

As Barry said, we don't have much to work on. It could be something specific about your new mic, or it could be one of the common reasons why PD's sound gets muted. Take a look some of the possible reasons here.

You should be able to isolate the problem by placing another clip on the timeline and see if PD plays sound from it.
