Party voice chat not working

Hi,
I’d like to report a persistent issue with the party voice chat in Battlefield 6 on PC.

A few days ago, the voice chat worked correctly between me (Steam version) and a friend (also on Steam).
However, yesterday the party voice chat suddenly stopped working for everyone in our group — including a third friend playing via the EA App.

Here’s what we observed:

  • The microphones are detected correctly in the game settings (the game shows our nicknames when we speak).
  • The party voice chat is enabled in the audio options.
  • No one can hear anyone, and no voice indicators appear when others speak — even though each player sees their own mic activity.
  • We tried both “party” and “squad” voice chat channels.
  • Restarting the game, EA App, and Steam did not fix it.
  • Audio devices and Windows microphone permissions are all correctly set.
  • We also checked that no mute or push-to-talk settings were interfering.

What’s strange is that even the two friends (Steam + EA App) couldn’t hear each other, so it doesn’t seem to be a local issue on my PC.

We’re wondering if this could be:

  • a temporary issue with EA VOIP / relay servers
  • a cross-launcher compatibility bug between Steam and EA App players

Could you please check if there are any ongoing issues with the Battlefield 6 VOIP system or party chat service?

  • I’m having the same issue.  VOIP party chat randomly works then doesn’t work.  In game settings show my microphone picking up my voice, but won’t broadcast to my party even though I’ve triple checked my settings.  It will randomly start working with no rhyme or reason.  Sometimes my party can hear me and I can’t hear them or vice versa.  Drivers are all updated as well.  This is frustrating trying to play with friends.
