Re: cant hear voice chat at all

@Mysterymaster_OP If you are on windows 10, can you open 

Windows Settings > Devices > Sound Settings > Manage Sound Devices

What is the list of output devices you currently have?  If there is more than one output, disable everything except the headset you're trying to put it to.  Again, the game does not take what your default setting is set to so it does not matter what you set your default to.

    @Mysterymaster_OP Looks like I was wrong on my previous statement about it not looking at default device - it seems to go to your 'default communications device'.

    Navigate to Windows Settings > Devices > Sound Settings > Sound Control Panel

    Under the playback tab, right click your headset and set it to default communications device.
