I do not have any parental locks and my account is the only one on the Xbox. My mic plugs directly into my controller, no dongle at all. The mic is a razer kraken ultimate headset, however I tried borrowing a buddy of mines after flow headset and that did not work either. I have been searching everywhere trying to find a solution and have come up short. Oddly enough, I was playing the game today and my mic worked for a period of time and then eventually cut out again and the voip icon disappeared from the online list. I have been playing this game for over a year now and game chat always worked fine up until about a month ago it stopped and like I said my headset works fine in party chat as well as any other multiplayer game chat it seems to be just day z.
