I unplugged my mic from the Mbox 2 temporarily and when I plugged it back in I was unable to hear my vocals. I know they are recording because I can see the track but it is silent when i play it back. I'm using pro tools 8.05 LE using macbook with snow leopard. I know the fader levels are ok + the track isn't on mute. Someone please help me!

 Option K toggles between "input only monitoring" and "Auto input monitoring" on PTLE. This question is most likely more of a DUC, Digi forum question then a SSD question. – AzimuthAudio Jul 22 2011 at 15:16
@Iain but he's using PT 8 LE. – Tak Jul 22 2011 at 15:19

Possibly either your outputs are wrong or your I/O has been changed.

Are you sending it to the correct outputs? Generally Outputs 1 & 2 should be your default.

Have you recently changed your I/O settings?

There's a knob on the mBox 2 labelled "Mix". If you turn it in one direction, you'll only hear whatever's plugged into your inputs (mics, etc.). If you turn it in the other direction, you'll hear your Pro Tools outputs. I can never remember which direction is which, but it's easy enough to check.

Left is for source (Mic) and right is for computer. – Iain McGregor♦ Jul 22 2011 at 17:26
