Voice chat issues in games

I try to voice chat with my head set in games and on steam voice chat they can hear me in steam voice chat but I cannot hear them. It is not the headset since I’ve tried many of them. Voice chat work with my account and headset fine on other computers. When
I voice call people I don't hear the ring of the call when I call them unlike I do in other computers but I can hear the sound in most games fine and I can hear the beep when someone messages me. I can see the in the voice chat their volume of how their speaking
go up and down the bar that show how loud they are speaking but I can’t hear them and the ringing when I call the in steam voice chat.
I have Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview build 10041

Hi,
Do you mean that you can hear others' voice, but all your friends can not hear you? Have you checked the volume mixer to adjust the volume of the video chat or check the volume settings on the game page? Are they all set in correct configuration?
When does this issue happen? recently? or since you installed 10041? I recommend you manually reinstall the driver for the headset and check if it works.
Regards.

Trouble With Voice-Chat In Ga

Hi I have an Audigy 2 Platinum and am currently having problems when using voice chat when playing games. Whenever I speak I hear myself being repeated through my speakers a second or so after, so that I can hear what I am currently saying along with what I've just said at the same time. I am using a Labtec PC mic connected to the Mic In 2/Line In 2 connection on the break-out box at the front of my computer. I thought it might just be a latency issue causing a delay from when I say something to when I actually hear it but I'm not sure how to confirm this or how to change the settings in the mixer. Could anyone please help me with this. Thanks very much!

Since Yahoo Messenger is not an Apple product you should look to Yahoo support for answers:

Of since you're friends are the ones who receive the error message, perhaps they should upgrade their messenger.

Disabling Voice chat in game Center games

I would like to disable the voice chat feature entirely out of Game Center based games. My kids occasionally play the iPad and I've heard them conversing with random people over games.

Just for the record and for the other concerned parents, I've taken the iPad away for now until I can get this figured out. Thank you all for your forthcoming help!

WRT54GS V.1 and SOE Games , Voice Chat

After a few weeks of trying every method of troubleshooting.. the voice chat feature from SOE games still does not work when connected through my router. If I connect dsl modem directly to pc, the voice feature works.
This was their last recommendation, which btw I have updated firmware to the latest version already:
"Hello again,
From the results you've just shared it looks like your router is unable to send/receive VoIP data, because the packets are too large. In order to fix this, you will need to update your router's firmware, hopefully Linksys has a new firmware with a VoIP data fix to allow the router to process the larger data packets."
How can I verify the packet size being too large? Is this true?

Have you ever used the voice chat feature from SOE games when connected through the router ?
I doubt it...It seems there is no such firmware with a VOIP data fix...
Remember, after a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you have not done this since your last firmware upgrade, please do this now and see if it corrects your problem...
To reset the router press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

HP Pavilion dv7-6b78us Sound Problem (sound routes to built-in speakers during voice chat)

I'm having an issue with my laptop. When I play using Steam with headphones plugged in, and I attempt to start a voice call, the sound routes to the built-in speakers and I cannot switch it back to just headphones.
I tired unplugging and replugging the headphones, that didn't work,and turning down the speaker sound made the game sound not go through the headphones. What could be wrong? Restarting fixes the issue, but it happens everytime I attempt to voice chat...

This used to happen to me when I 1st purchased my laptop. Heres a solution that worked for me.
RIght click on your audio icon next to the clock, then left click the "Playback Devices" option.
On this window, look for the tab named "Communications" at the top. Heres a screenshot: http://puu.sh/4OtOO.png
When on this tab, click on "Do Nothing" this will prevent windows from switching your headphone to the speakers everytime you get a new notification.
Cheers.

Why can't i see the chat in the game the Godfather five families by kabam i can't see the chat but in other Browsers i can see the chat why is that?

i can't see chat room in games using firefox but if i use chrome i can see it?

HI NYYANKEES,
That looks like a fun game. If I may ask, does this happen in Safe Mode? [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
Does it also happen when you update to version 32.0.3?

Voice chat in ut2k4 won't work [not solved yet]

I have already tried the following resources:
http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wfs … ticleid=34
http://www.thehaus.net/Tips/UT/ut2004icculusfaq.shtml
my ~/.openalrc:
Contains user settings for OpenAL
; Which backend? Tried in order of appearance.
;(define devices '(native alsa sdl esd arts null))
(define devices '(alsa sdl esd))
; Four speaker surround with ALSA.
(define speaker-num 2)
;(define alsa-out-device "surround40:0,0")
(define alsa-out-device "hw:0,0")
; For alsa-in support. Mainly for using voice chat.
(define alsa-in-device "hw:1,0")
;hw:1,0 because i use my second sound card to record on many programs (ie audacity) bc emu10k1 only records the sound out not mic.
; Some drivers do not support select.
;(define native-use-select ;t)
symptoms:
sound works great, clear and not laggy at all. i have all the voice chat keys mapped and all the good voice chat options enabled. everytime i press a key that chats, either teamchat or public-chat the sound gets sort quiet (like it's supposed to, to avoid feedback). the problem is nobody hears me at all, not even a "turn up you volume dude!" or "what was that?!"

this is what i see on "alsamixer -V capture" i turned on the mic capture and encreased it's volume. still the same syptoms persist in any recording app set to use the audigy gamer. no matter where i plug in the mic the app only records the outgoing sounds from the sound servers and apps but never the mic.
btw: on all distros my kmix has never had anything in the input tab, (no record sources) when you click mixer in the tray of kde.

Voice Chat

I have a Torch 9810 and I am having a problem with Voice Chat. I have never used it, but somehow two of my BBM contacts are showing the green icon on the top right corner when I am BBM'ing them. How do I remove voice chat from those contacts. I am being charged by my provider for something I am not using.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Because the other BB user must have the most recent version of BBM installed that includes voice chat AND they have to be on wifi, or, on some devices and carriers, 4G.

Voice chat on imac

Hi~~~my yahoo messenger voice chat has been cutting out and not sure why---is this a common thing with yahoo or is this maybe a imac issue ???

Hi Joni2b,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions
Any Firewire DV output (6 pin to 6pin) Camcorder
Any Firewire Web cam
Any USB cam that has Mac drivers and this Utility http://www.ecamm.com/mac/ichatusbcam/
The chances are that any USB cam is going to have Windows drivers (if you need them for a Intel)
Logitec and iMage seem to be offered up as choices at the moment.
A Camcorder is likely to work as Mic as well others may need a separate Mic. Use USB

Voice Chat on Yahoo Instant Messenger doesn't work on my HP though it does on my work desktop.

My Yahoo Instant Messenger doesn't allow voice chat on my laptop, though I can use it on my work desktop. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no success. I'm thinking there may be a hardware issue, an update missing or something.

No idea what "My apple ID account doesn't work on my itunes but it does on the web" means.
Please explain

USB Headsets & voice chat in Second Life

I am curious if anyone else has attempted to try out the voice chat in the Second Life (v1.16) preview. I know this is a beta version and it may be a matter of things simply not working yet.
First of all, here are my hardware settings:
• Power Macintosh G5 - 1.8 GHz, 160 GB HD (70 GB free), 2GB RAM
• Logitech 250 USB headset
I have had the headset connected to all of the USB ports on the front and back of the G5, both ports on the keyboard and through a powered USB 2.0 hub with no change in performance or results. The headset works in Skype and GarageBand with no problems.
Here's the issue...
When attempting to use voice chat in Second Life, I have only been able to successfully talk with other users on one occasion. Most other times, I either have no response from the mic, or no audio in the headphones.
This does not happen until I am running Second Life and attempt to enable voice chat, but the effect is system-wide once it happens.
I suspect it is a problem with the preview version of Second Life and or its voice system but I would appreciate any thoughts anybody might have.
Thanks!

Issue is more widespread than originally thought. Re-posting in proper venue with more specifics.

Yahoo messenger voice chat stopped working (after archive & install)

I have an iMac5 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz. I (actually my wife) was using Yahoo Messenger v3.0 beta 4 (built 156957) for all chat and voice chat. About 2 months ago voice chat stopped working. when i send invite, it keeps ringing (but the receiver never sees any invite). When the other person sends me an invite, I don't get anything.
I have downloaded Gizmo, but it also keeps "connecting...".
About 2 months ago, I had to archive and install to solve a Java update issue which was causing wierd problems. Thanks to BDAqua's advice I managed to resolve that. I have J2SE 1.4.2 and 5.0; everything else is working fine.
What can cause voice chat to stop working? Is there some vc plugin in library that needs to be there, which has disappearted after my "archive and install'? Please advise. thanks Fahd

Hi again Fahdali,
Have you tried reinstalling it since then?

Hi all. I want to make audio chat with my brother. I use iChat on my MBP. He uses Gtalk on his windows PC. The problem is that the audio icon is gray. Is there anyway? Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows?

Hi all. I want to make audio chat with my brother. I use iChat on my MBP. He uses Gtalk on his windows PC. The problem is that the audio icon is gray so I cannot start audio chat. Is there anyway? Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows or not? I am confused.

HI,
You need to satisfy several things along the way
Account type
You need to have a Jabber or Google mail Account your self.
If you have a Google Mail Account then it needs the "Talk" option Enabled in your Google account Settings ( A Facebook with "Chat" enabled is also a valid Jabber ID to use in iChat).
Connection Method
This is about which apps can connect to which apps for Video ro Audio to work.
iChat Video when using a Jabber account is iChat to iChat Only.
iChat connects using a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol)
Jabber based Apps if they have an A/V module connect using protocol called Jingle.
Needless to say Google do their own version of this that is written in to the web Browser Plugin that allows Video Chats (there are PC and Mac versions), and in the PC app called GoogleTalk.
However it is also not that compatible with other Jabber apps.
See Jingle here
This claims, now, that Google had a hand in writing the Protocol.
Also in the "Clients Supporting Jingle" list many more version of Google products are mentioned with extended info. (it suggests that someone at Google has been editing the page).
Can iChat make voice chat with Gtalk on windows or not?
The specific answer to this to be clear is NO.
We are talking about different Apps (or web Browser Plugins) using different Internet Protocols that are not compatible.
The simplest thing is to get the Web Browser Plugin (However there can be issues with the Flash Plugin)
At one time Google used Flash to do Video Chats and it would seem their Plugin is very close to this part of Flash.
See the Known Issues and the "Google Talk Plugin Disables iSight On Mac" item.
Options
Use a Web Browser yourself with the Plugin.
Use a Flash Base Site such as MeBeam (Flash has to be enabled in your Browser and the instructions are simple on the page)
Try to find a Jingle capable Mac Jabber Client (app) ( I have not found one).
