Voice chat not working at all (PC)

I cannot properly join team voice chat at all. Twice, I’ve gotten an error message that tells me I’ve been kicked out voice chat at the very start of a match, but other than that, nothing.

I can join team chat, it’ll show me as being in the chat, but I’ll be alone and I’ll have a mute icon in the social tab. The push-to-talk button doesn’t give any response. Open mic doesn’t matter either. Everything else works.

I’ve restarted the PC multiple times;
I’ve changed every voice chat setting;
I’ve reset all the settings;
I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled (twice),
I’ve plugged different mics in (two different headsets, earbuds, and my Yeti into 3 different USB ports);
I’ve closed out of any other application;
I’ve changed and reset the voice chat settings in the bnet launcher;
I’ve changed and reset every single voice setting within windows from removing/disabling devices and readding to making it default vs specific inputs/outputs;
I’ve played the tutorial even though I’m 30 hours deep in competitive games this season;
Nothing has worked. No other game I play has this problem.

I am a vet player from OW1, where my VC worked perfectly fine, and that was integral to how I played the game.

I have the exact same problem. To add:

  • No confirmation in chat that I joined a voice channel
  • Goes for Group and Team Voice Chat
  • Other people don’t see me in the voice chat
  • I tried the same things as MagicTurtle
  • I tried XLR mic and USB mic
  • Also OW1 Player (1K hours)

Experiencing the same issue as posters above: one day game stopped connecting me with the voice chat, but is not kicking me out either. PC player, played regularly since 2016, only other issue I had with VC through all these years is that push-to-talk never actually worked for me (open mic was fine).

Something changed for you? As for me it’s STILL broken…

Same here, my voice chat is muted.

For me it happen about a week ago simultaneously on both my pc at home. Mic are perfectly working in windows/discord but in game nothing is recognized and i also can’t hear the others in teamchat…
EDID: the problem seem to come from the network connection. When I use my phone’s data to launch the game the voicechat work normally…

Did you find a way to solve it for your LAN connection?
