@EA_Atic My microphone is working; I just dont hear anyone 🤨
I also have in-game sound after switching the device...... Of course the engine is implemented differently etc. but all use the same sound wrapper (Idk how to describe). Each title I played got the issue of not using the sound device saved in windows. I can only speak about the games I played (FIFA, SW BF2, BF3, BF4, BF1, BFV) .. everywhere the same 🤔
/;//edit;// It is FIFA17. So a lil bit older.
/://edit2:// you could reproduce the bug by setting your default device to something else and save your headset in the application list as device for battlefield. After starting the game you ll see what Im talking about ;o
DICE TeamTested around with what you described and same results as you, frostbite trying to use the default on startup and that is why you are not hearing anything even if you force to change it in the windows application list.
Frostbite by default uses windows sound default setting for Mic and Speakers on startup so it's not a bug - but I will send it on as feedback to the team.
If you use your headset/speaker as a default sound device in windows it should work. @wildbam

@EA_Atic nope. cause I need the default device for other sound applications. Before windows introduced this setting to save a device for an application I had to have everything started.. then tab out and change the default device to have sound ingame.. the other applications dont switch the device while running. games usually do. so same procedure.... //edit fixed typo
@EA_Atic already explained this to you here https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/wrong-sound-device-no-voip/m-p/8447241#M28162
Why is this no bug since we got the application list? My workaround before was "no" bug (read quoted answer above). But since windows build 1803 it is. Anyways I don't want to argue. Thanks for forwarding this! I really appreciate it 🙌
a few days ago I got the ingame tip on loading screen "Use your voip to communicate with your squad" ... something like that.
Id rly like to but as long as this bug will not be fixed Im not be able to use the ingame VOIP... pls fix.. it's af if your squad is talking and you dont hear anyone... (I see the indicators behind their names)
