VOIP issue in MP

[Strateg 10]

Hello. I have a problem with VOIP in game. I push to talk and see an icon light up, but when I talk noone can hear me even if after they cancelled mute on me. I've got HIGH DEFINITION ON-BOARD 7.1 AUDIO that came with my Asus P5N-E nForce 650i SLI Chipset LGA775 FSB1333 DDR2 Mainboard

Please help me solve this.

I'm posting this on behalf of one of my friends who is having the same issue, we still have not found a solution either.

Just for reference, he is using a mic which is built into his webcam.

It seems to be something with the Realtec AC'97 codec; which I'm guessing is also on the P5n (I have an Asus commando that has it). In WinXP I could never get it to work, I could use TS and still hear VOIP; but I couldn't xmit on voip (it was just static to other players). I got it to work since moving to Win7 since there seems to be better control over which hardware to use for emulation; but I also had to use the old-ass SoundMAX drivers from my motherboard CD since the ones released for Win7 don't want to work.

I think it's a problem with the drivers/codec, and how WinXP supports them. I haven't tried on Vista since I don't own it, so I don't know if it has the same problem

Well, my problem is that Arma2 is the only software my mic doesn't work with. So, I'm guessing that it's not my mic but Arma2's compatibility with my mic.

Id like to disable this ingame totally, No ingame engine built von is viable in my eyes. Teamspeak or Ventrillo are the only choices for me by far..

Is there a way to disable VoN on client machines in the cfg so i dont have to hear others using it with the over bloated mic gains, and scratchy talking in the toilet type ringing in my ears?

I dont want my pc having to deal with such stuff while im trying to keep issues to a min as it is when playing :D

I've been playing Battlefield 2's Project Reality mod a lot and BF2's in-game VOIP is excellent. We do use Mumble too, but for a squad communication it's 10/10

Sorry for the necro/gravedigging, but the ingame VON/VOIP feature is not working for me either.

Soundcard: Creative X-Fi Titanium Pro

Motherboard: Maximus II Formula

Graphics card: HD 4890 1GB

RAM: 8GB @ 800

Processor: Q9550

Windows 7 64bit.

It would be nice to be able to chose what audio-input device the game would use.

If you are running Windows Vista or Windows 7, then this may not be an issue. I have a Creative X-Fi Pro soundcard, and used the accompanying Controll Launcher to set up recording device. Teamspeak 3 worked, but VoIP in ArmA 2 didn't. This is easily solved in Windows 7:

Right-click sound mixer and click recording devices. Set microphone as standard. VoIP now works in ArmA 2.

Unlike the sound mixer in Windows XP, Creative Controll Launcher software apparently isn't syncronized in Windows 7.
