Cannot get my microphone to record in Audition

Question

I have my interface (U-phoria UMC202HD) plugged into my PC and my XLR microphone (audio-technicia2035) plugged into output 1. I know the sound is being picked up because when I snap into the mic, the "sig" lights up on the interace, indicating it is receiving the audio signals. However, when I open a track in audition and try to record, it allows me to press record but records absolutely no sound.

I have the input set to the interface and the output set to the speakers. I don't know why it isn't working.

Pressing Record isn't the only thing you have to do - have you selected your mic as the track input? You may be attempting to record from a different input. I'm reasonably sure that it won't say 'none' because it won't let you activate channel record arming otherwise. The other question is - does the transport move when it's failing to record, or does nothing happen?
