    The first thing to do is try ALL of the options listed here:

    These are the most common causes of voice issues.

    Failing the above you can try and update your Realtek codecs - mine were like 3 years old. As it's a codec and not a driver I overlooked updating it. I updated earlier today and all audio (in this game and another I had issues with) work fine now.

    http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

    Just tick 'accept' and then 'next' > choose your OS and when it's done, restart.

    Extras:
    I also saw on Reddit that setting your in-game output to 'Speakers' and not 'Headphones' fixed the issue for some.

    Hope this helps - Thanks

    Naw, go look up my post on the main forum. We figured it out without having to install other stuff. I'd link to it, but I'm still playing the game ;)

    @monkeychow01 I tried what you put in your post and none of that worked for me. I've tried everything everyone suggests and Im still getting nowhere. I can see chat bubble for my team but never hear them and they can never hear me. Ive tried push to talk and not using push to talk. Ive switched the ptt button, the game doesnt even seem to recognize my push to talk key. It sucks because i cant even join with new people, I have to play with people i know so I can use discord to chat.

    I'm going crazy. My mic works with no issues in EVERYTHING ELSE ON MY COMPUTER. But for some reason, Sea of Thieves can't hear it. I've tried every tip I've found and nothing works. It's just a USB microphone. I don't get it.
