Fix 1: Update the audio driver of your PC

What happens if the voice chat in Overwatch on Windows 10 still does not work after trying the previous method?

Well, if the simple changes in Overwatch didn't help, now is the time to investigate the true cause.

First, examine the basic requirement to use audio in Windows 10: the audio driver of your PC. You may have the wrong audio driver or be outdated. This means searching for the correct audio driver online and installing it.

    It prevents conflicts of controllers and guarantees a smooth operation of the hardware.
    It automatically recognizes your system and identifies the correct drivers that are suitable for it.
    Do not worry if you install the wrong drivers or know the requirements of your system.
    Free scanning of missing or obsolete drivers.
    One-click download of all necessary drivers with the Pro version.

    Make a backup for security reasons so you can go back to the previous drivers if you wish.

Here’s how you can easily use Auslogics Driver Updater to update your PC’s audio driver:

    Download and install the Auslogics Driver Updater.
    Once you run Auslogics Driver Updater, the missing or obsolete drivers will be searched on the computer.
    After scanning, Auslogics Driver Updater displays a list of the necessary drivers.
    You can click to update everything, or simply select and update the PC audio driver. If you have not yet purchased the premium version, you will be redirected to a payment page.
    After activating the premium version, Auslogics Driver Updater updates its drivers.
    Once the drivers are updated, you can restart your computer.

After turning on the computer again, check if the problem with Overwatch voice chat does not work. 



Fix 2: Check the Overwatch audio settings in the game
The problem could be the audio settings in Overwatch.

By changing the settings, voice chat can come back to life immediately. Follow this steps to solve the problem:

       Open Overwatch, click Options and select Sound.
       Increase the volume of your microphone or speakers to an audible level.
       Make sure TEAM VOICE CHAT and GROUP VOICE CHAT are set to AUTO JOIN.
       Make sure the correct devices for VOICE CHAT DEVICES are selected.
       Change the keyboard shortcut for Voice Chat when Voice Chat is set to "Push To Talk." This means that "Push to Talk" in the "Controls" menu is changed to another key.

Then join the team chat. Now test if the Overwatch voice chat issue was fixed.

It was wrapped in plastic and even contained the original manual and Razer stickers. If I didn't know better, I would think this is a new keyboard. Not a single defect. When I registered it on the Razer website with the serial number and product number, it showed that I had a 2-year warranty. Previously I had a Redragon K551 Wand. This keyboard had blue keys, which I thought were very strong. This Razer feels much better and is not as loud as the last keyboard. The lighting is nice and bright and is synchronized with my other Razer products and my Thermaltake products through Razer Synapse 3.
