Push to talk not working?

[Uber Mario]

Hello,

When i set my voice activation to voice activated, it works in game. Other players can hear me and the little icon with my player name and the speaker activates.

I need to use push to talk however because I have my discord set to voice activated. But, when i set voice chat to push to talk, it doesn't activate in game. Default PTT button is N. I tried it like that and also tried changing key mapping to another PTT button and still doesn't work.

Anyone experience this and/or know a solution?

Thanks,

Make sure Discord, the game and then Windows are all set to the same output.
Windows may have set the mic to other than the one the game uses.
I have a VR device, Windows will reset to Rift audio after an update.

Might help, might not...

Hi Bone,

I think it does help. I'm trying to figure out a solution resulting in me being able to have push to talk for in game and voice activated for discord, but I see what your saying. A temporary solution I might try, based on what you're saying, is to use 2 different push to talk buttons for discord and rdr2. Maybe N for discord and K for rdo.

Thank you,

if you mean the in-game voice chat not working using the N button (by default settings) then it's a well known bug that never got fixed and happens oftenly. You'll have to go to online options using the player menu , disable the voice chat , change the session and turn it back on. if not fixed you might just have to restart your game with voice option off then turn it on once you have loaded in

and btw make sure in the game settings / sound related settings / input device is set correctly to your mic

That happens to me almost everytime i join the game. Just go to sound settings and change the microphone to another one and then change it back to your main microphone. This will fix it.

this is currently happening to me. when I'm in the game, I can't talk in Discord. when I'm in the game, I use my Discord push to talk button but nothing happens.

See if you have "Game Mode" enabled in Windows. This will force the game to have exclusive full screen for performance reasons and would block background apps and whatever their hotkeys are as a result.
