Audio and voice

Sound, microphones, the Windows communications device nobody knows about, and the difference between a radio problem and a proximity-voice problem.

high likely Radio works but nobody nearby can hear me (proximity voice failure) Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0003

If your radio works, your microphone and your headset are fine. What is failing is the part of the server that decides who is close enough to hear you — that is ours to look at.

medium confirmed I cannot hear anything in game Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0001

Windows can send different sounds to different devices. Usually this is the game talking to a device you are not wearing.

medium confirmed Others cannot hear me Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0002

Windows has a privacy switch that can block the microphone for games specifically, even when it works elsewhere.

medium likely Proximity voice works but the radio does not Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0004

Since people nearby can hear you, your microphone is fine. This is about the radio itself — the item, the channel, or its permissions.

low likely Microphone cuts out, sounds robotic, or is very quiet Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0005

Choppy voice is usually the headset link or the network, not the game.

low confirmed Echo, or hearing yourself and others twice Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0006

Your microphone is hearing your own speakers, or the same conversation is reaching you twice.

low confirmed Voice stops working after plugging or unplugging a headset mid-session Voice · AGN-KB-VOICE-0007

The game chose its audio device when it started. Changing headsets afterwards does not move it.
