Im having problems with my mic ( in VR )
So i wanna play in VR. And connect my microphone onto it.

For clarity i have a oculus quest 2, and im using it with virtual desktop.

So i wanna connect my headphones mic with the game. But the problem is. If i connect it to my headset, the game doesnt recognize it. And when i connect it to my pc, i have to stand infront of my PC for it to hear me. Please help!

but... how. please explain step by step

Im on vacations so i dont have my PC here so its difficult to explain, but in short if you are using virtual desktop you have to mark the option “stream audio” (or somethinh like this) in the desktop app, and enable that in the virtual desktop app from the VR app too.

You also have to set the “virtual desktop audio” as your default mic/audio from the Windows audio device manager too. Then, ingame, when you check your voice recognition you can choose which one you want to use among all the available ones. Select “virtual desktop audio stream” and try the test (give us a sign).

If you dont want to use the Quest2 audio/mic, and wanna use your headphones instead, dont do anything of the above, but check that your audio and mic didnt change after you connect via virtual desktop. Sometimes Ive disbled virtual desktop / oculus audio and mic devices for this reason, when I only wanna use my headphones.

I hope this helps you. Good luck, and excuse my bad English.

Unless im misunderstanding, why not use the built in Mic? Im also using the Quest 2 and VD and IIRC all i did was just make sure the Virtual mic in the game settings was selected, did the "give us a sign" mic test and it works. In the desktop streamer i have "auto select mic" switched on as well.
