  1. Microphone cutting out when other players speak in game


    My microphone has been cutting out while others players speak, I have a USB microphone that's new. My microphone is completely fine when i'm in discord calls or recording, but as soon as I get in game in Fortnite it messes up. With other players, my microphone is fine when no one is speaking or no other microphone is detected but as soon as someone makes a noise or speaks my microphone doesn't detect what I say and cut out. It's aggravating for me and other players. Am i doing something wrong or did I fidget with any settings that would've caused this? Please let me know. Thank you!

  3. Microphone cuts out when others speak.

    I'm playing an online game called World of Tanks, and I will be speaking, and when another person speaks my mic will cut out until the people are done talking. I already have exclusive mode turned off for the microphone as suggested to me by peers.

    Microphone & Speaking

    Hi tlcadieux2,

    There are a number of reasons why you are having challenges in using the Microphone while talking to Cortana.

    Below are the different methods on how to get this resolved.

    Method 1: Turn on the Microphone in Settings.

    This is the most common reason why the Microphone is not working. You can turn on the Microphone by following these steps:

    • Go to Settings.
    • Choose Privacy.
    • Click Microphone.
    • Under Let apps use my microphone, slide the toggle button to turn it on.

    Method 2: Set up Microphone from the Control Panel.

    Modifying the Sound Settings may help in resolving your concern. Follow the steps below:

    • Type Sound in Cortana Search.
    • Choose the first search result.
    • Click the Recording tab.
    • If you can’t find the Microphone from the list, right-click on the list then select Show Disabled Devices, otherwise proceed to step 5.
    • Right-click the Microphone.
    • Select Enable.
    • Click Properties.
    • Choose the Levels tab.
    • Set the Microphone volume to a higher value.
    • Choose the Enhancements tab.
    • Tick the box beside the Disable all sound effects option.
    • Hit OK.

    Method 3: Update the Microphone driver.

    Here’s an article that would walk you through the steps on how to update drivers
    in Windows 10. It also includes steps in case you would have to uninstall and reinstall the Microphone driver.

    Hope this helps!

    Kind regards,

    Leon
