Is there a way to make sure the microphone works?

During a stream to Twitch, my viewers no longer got anything from my microphone, although the game kept its sound. In retrospect, I could've looked at the Mic/Aux monitor, but I didn't (still new to OBS). But is there any chance that the mic can stop working while that meter would stil show activity?

I simply turned my mic on/off [1] and OBS picked it up again. My microphone is the one embedded in the headphones: Sennheiser GSP 600.

[1] It's a latching mechanism that toggles the microphone on/off. When you have the mic in line with the head band, it's closed, and when you lower it to mouth level, it's on.
