USB Headset Problems

So I was playing Civilizations V when out of nowhere the sound cut from my headphones to my monitor's speakers. So I head over to hardware and sound from the control panel to test the headphones but unfortun ately, when I press test the green bar doesn't even fill up. A lot of times it fills up but you don't hear anything or the headphones aren't shown to be connected at all, but this wasn't the case. Since my headset is a two-part system (headset with audio jack and soundcard with usb cable), I unplugged the audio jack from the sound card and tested it with my iPad. It played sound normally. Also, I know the soundcard and usb cable are plugged in to the computer because the LED lights up properly, just no sound. Any ideas?

Headset USB controller could be bad, but that isn't certain

Yeah I'm hoping that's not it though because I'd hate to have to send it in to Amazon for a replacement.
