Make sure that the checkbox saying 'TeamSpeak is enabled on this computer' is checked.
Click on Voice -> TEAMSPEAK (Choose your sound devices) -> Click on Volumes -> (Insure Sliders are to the right for more volume) Click on Key mappings ->  (Choose your PTT for keyboard [and or joystick button] and TS PTT button. The default user preference is CAPSLOCK for the keyboard mappings.)
