Voice Chat on PS5 not working

Question

Hi there,&nbsp;I can't for the life of me figure out how to enable voice chat while I have mute pressed on the PS5 controller. I have headphones (without mic) connected to the PS5 controller. I'd like to be on mute (not use the controller's mic) and still be able to hear my squad, however when I press mute on the PS5 controller, it not only mutes me (as intended), but it also mutes everyone in my squad.&nbsp;- I have game sound + chat audio enabled while I have headphones connected- I have tried multiple PS5 controllers all exhibiting the same behaviour- I have tried reseting my PS5 to factor default- I have tried rebuilding the PS5 database- Under BFV audio settings, VOIP is enabled- If I'm in a party, the mic works as intended. I press mute, and I can hear everyone in the party. But when I'm not in a party and just part of a standard 4 man/woman squad, pressing mute on the controller, disables voice chat.- When I say mute, I mean one-press mute (not long press). I know long press of mute disables all audio on the PS5. When I press mute, I can hear game audio, but the voice chat gets disabled (can't hear other squad members.)&nbsp;If someone has run into this issue and figured out how to fix it, I would love to hear from you. I can't figure out why the PS5 would block everyones's voice when I press mute. It should just mute me. I never ran into this issue on the PS4.Thanks in advance.

The problem is not muting, the problem is voice chat isn’t working for months now.

the controller and settings are fine, I can see other players talking in my squad but i can’t hear or talk to them.

and here the rant section:

and same as the overload bug on maps like hamada and panzerstorm or the twisted steel loading bug, its not foing to be solved.. because they made they decide on monetizing and a nee battedield no one asked for.

Hey @randomness1231 unfortunately this is a bug undergoing the ps5 it also happens in other games aswell (for me anyways)
Not only that but PS5 also has the issue of putting it into rest mode and downloading and recharging controllers don't actually do any of that.

Hope it answers your question

Same here. And they will not fix anything. Shame.

The only possible solution i could advice you to try is that you just turn the Mic Level completely down to "0" in the "Adjust Mic Level" setting. Shoud be like Mute then i guess, if you like to still hear the squad but not want to talk.&nbsp;
