  3. Voice chat audio no longer comes through Default communication device (mic works fine)

    Hi Samuel,

    A factor why you're voice chat sounds goes through your speakers as well is due to configuration settings. We suggest that you configure playback devices. Follow the steps below:

    • Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound >
      Sound
      .
    • Left-click on Speakers > Click on Set as Default Device.
    • Left-click on Headphones > Select Set as Default Communication Device.
    • Click OK.

    If the issue still occurs, contact your device manufacturer's support for assistance on configuring your device.

    Let us know what happens after following the suggested troubleshooting steps.
