Microphone not working in-game, works on Discord & etc
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hi there. I don't know if this is a bug or not but I'm pretty sure it is. In-game, my microphone doesn't work. When I press the push-to-talk key, I see the actual microphone icon pop up, but I don't see the lines next to it (the ones that indicate whisper, talk, shout). I do see the lines however when I switch to whisper & shout, but never for talk. I've tried almost everything at this point (re-installing the game, making the microphone default in windows, knowing my push to talk key, etc). I don't know what to do anymore. help!

Hello BlockBuster.
Have you tried this without the discord and any other programs running?

Do you have any sort of non standard setup? Some sort of external soundcard? Or is everything connected directly to the computer? Also are both the headset and the quadcast mic connected at the same time or have you tried one by one?

The mic is connected via USB and the headset is wireless, but still connected by USB. I have tried them both one by one

I am having the same problem with a usb wireless Headset.

Here's an update everyone. I solved this issue, but that was by reinstalling windows (the option where you reinstall windows but keep apps, photos, and that kind of stuff). Not sure why this issue happened in the first place, or how to solve it not by completely reinstalling windows.
