If this is definately a compatability problem, you should take the cam back and exchange for a compatible one before you have had it too long to exchange. Ask the shop advice and if there is still a problem then atleast it's the shops fault in advising you wrongly.

SOURCE: no sound on my computer with quick cam communocate STX

i had the same problem just go to control panel and click on sound. after that you will see your speaker system and then a digital sound system (which is for the camera) pick your system. This took me hours to figure out but I set it so the camera uses my speakers.

SOURCE: logitech quick cam communicate stx on Vista - microphone not working

Why isn't the microphone on my camera working?
Answer The microphone may not work because of a hardware or configuration problem. To determine if it's a hardware problem, test the microphone in Sound Recorder.

1. Click "Start," > "Programs" ("All Programs" for Windows XP) > "Accessories" > "Entertainment" > "Sound Recorder."
2. Click the Record button and speak into the microphone of the camera. You should see the green line move, indicating the application is picking up sound.
3. Click the Stop button.
4. Click the Play button. If there is no sound at playback, check to make sure the correct device is selected.
   1. Click "Edit," then "Audio Properties."
   2. Make sure Logitech is listed as the Preferred device for "Sound recording."

The microphone may also be defective. To test this, try the camera on another USB enabled system.
If you can record sound in Sound Recorder, but not in the QuickCam application, try setting the Logitech Microphone as the Preferred device in Audio Properties.
