Battlefield 5 steals microphone Discord
Hi! I have an issue with Battlefield 5 and Discord app. The thing is that when i start BF5, it grabs microphone in a monopoly mode and Discord is not able to use it anymore. I don't have that proble...
Forum Discussion
@run0ut are you trying to use the mic both in game and in discord? If you don't need to use the mic in game just turn off VOIP in BF5 and discord will be good to go as I play this way every week.
@ragnarok013 Makes sense, and i wrote in the OP post ingame voip is disabled)
Maybe the following article from Microsoft will point you in the right direction: How to control which Microsoft Store apps can use the microphone
Note
This functionality does not exist in Windows 10 versions 1809 and earlier.
- @XTRA-Larsiano Thank you for answer! Unfortunately Windows doesn't provide by app mic restrictions for "dektop apps", only for Microsoft Store apps and i can either enable it for all apps or disable at all.
Very sad and a big miss by Microsoft. EA would have to bypass this to make it easier for players i presume. The only thing you could check is the C:\Users\*yourprofile*\Documents\Battlefield V\settings\PROFSAVE_profile_GstAudio.VoipOn 1 make sure this is set to 0 (zero not O).
