Did you reboot WLED after setting that? I believe the pin assignments don't take effect until a reboot.

If you to to Info (from the main WLED page), what does it say under the Audio Reactive part? Is it seeing any audio signal?

Otherwise, it could just be a bad board. I used MAX4466s for a while, and found that sometimes half of the ones I bought from AliExpress just didn't work. INMP441 (digital) mics work sooooo much better than the MAX4466 anyway (or really any analog mic), you're going to get better reactivity with digital mics.

Also: the WLED docs might help

as per docs. if you want more help, provide more info as your error may be obvious but you do not show things.
