Microphone is not working ingame

[cruzsk07]

When I play DayZ it doesn’t work, i press the push to talk key and the mini logo of microphone shows up but and I can even change the levels of volume but people still can’t hear me… (My mic works on discord and all of the other games I play but not on DayZ )… does anyone knows the solution?.

Pretty sure this game has issues with USB mics 🤷‍♂️

She’s a picky one!

Not really. I was using 3.5 mm audio port and had to move to USB to get it working.

and you double checked the ingame settings? just checking off boxes to narrow solution maybe..

Interesting. Most of the issues I hear about are with USB mics. I’m fine with 3.5mm.

Same here. Usually 9 of 10 issues with mics in DayZ are posted by people which use USB headphones.
(Its rare to read about problems with dedicated USB mics.)

Could also be the actual headset brand, model, driver or lack of. I was using a razor 3.5 mm and switched over to a cheaper Amazon USB brand.

I was having issues while streaming or sometimes when Discord was running. Would have to disable voice chat, exit the menu, reopen the menu and re-enable voip. I forgot what ultimately fixed it months ago.

For PC i use analog hifi stereo headphones (T1 second gen & 880s) with a A2 headamp, and a Yeti X usb mic.

I will try that next time

Go to your steam window. Top left click "steam" - "settings" - "Voice"
steam now allows you to select your mic but some games by default just grab the wrong source. if it isn't that, try opening sound settings in windows while dayz is running and it should show you what input/output the game is using.

I finally fixed it. And the solution was that had to reset my pc Xd. I tried every solution that was on Reddit, YouTube , steam etc and nothing worked. But I think discord interferes with the dayZ, so it’s better to use discord on google chrome .

Glad you fixed it! That’s bizarre though. My Discord doesn’t affect DayZ at all.

I had an incident where I updated my GFX driver and it always does a RealTek HD Audio driver update with it. Well this one specific update somehow managed to screw up my mic input….but what’s really odd is my mic is hitting an external audio interface, so not even using the RealTek built-in drivers…..🤔

But whatever happened messed my voice up bad, across any game, discord etc. I had to reinstall my drivers for my interface to fix it.
