How to stop Text to Voice on XBOX

I believe they are coming in from PC users on Apex. How does one stop them from coming in on audio for XBOX.

Check under the accessibility options in Apex. I believe there's an option to disable text to speech.

Already turned off.

Thanks anyway, dont know how they are getting in.

Just random stuff, not very nice either.

Definitely needs to be a way to permanently disable text to speech as it causes stutters on Xbox Series X and major freezes (~0.5 seconds) on older Xbox consoles.

@OldGreyGhost54 get it too but usually polite. Thought it was some English lad talking to me at game ends until I realised it was text to speech. 😃

Thanks for getting back to me. Under gameplay, try disabling "Enable Accessible Chat Features". Let me know what happens.

  @EA_Aljo all three of your suggestions above were already off on my xbox when I checked it today. So they must have been off when the text to voice happened.
  Maby it is simply "a voice from the void", 😃 which cannot be stopped by mere mortals.

    Thanks for the details. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything else that could be causing this. If I have any more suggestions, I'll post them here.

  That has been off also.
  And just to let you know, this is the only game it happens in.
