The game won't pick up my voice
Since the launch of the game I've had an issue where the game just won't pick up my voice. I can select my microphone in the settings, if I change around settings between push to talk or open mic, tap or hold. Nothing fixes it.
I followed everything in this article as well with nothing being able to fix it:

While I don't have a recording of my exact issue I did find a reddit post of someone having the exact same problem as me. Link below:

For a game where communication is important especially if you have to fill this is a pretty annoying bug and I don't even see it recognized anywhere by bungie themselves.
Hopefully this can be resolved.

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out! Some users have reported that toggling the Handsfree mode setting in Windows' Bluetooth settings after opening the game may help with enabling in-game voice chat.
Please see our Audio and Voice Troubleshooting guide for more tips on configuring your audio setup for Marathon.
Hi and thank you for the response. Unless I'm misunderstanding this does not seem to resolve my issue. My issue is that only Marathon is not picking up my voice from the microphone, otherwise voice chat is perfectly working fine. I also do not use any Bluetooth devices on my PC in general. I have a Minifuse 1 that connects my microphone to the PC as it is a XLR microphone. I'd like to add my microphone is working perfectly fine in every other application like Discord or any game with voice chat.
The Audio and Voice troubleshooting guide article linked I also forwarded in my original post saying I had already followed the article with unfortunately no results.
Same problem here. I use 3.5 mm jack cabled Sennheiser HD 400S headphones with built-in mic. In the audio mixer the recording device is called "Intel Smart Sound Technology for digital microphones". The mic icons (both team and prox chat) are showing up correctly but no sound is coming out.
My microphone is working perfectly fine in Arc Raiders. I did everything the officiale troubleshooting guide suggests and it did not fix my issue. I attach a picture for clarity.
