    Muted Mic Symbol

    My Network is good and I tried 2 different controllers. The icon is there even when I’m not using my headset.

    Good point. If the arrow is still there in different lobbies then I’d say it’s supposed to be there.

    Hey Q775Q775! Thank you for reaching out to us. Our Ambassador above posted some great information about indicators and when they should be seen on your screen. Generally, if something is on the screen that shouldn't be there, it could be the console's
    software is displaying the incorrect icon or picture, and a simple
    hard reset and powercycle
    should resolve that issue. If the issue persists, then maybe the console's operating system may need to be reset. You can perform a

    soft factory reset
    to initiate that, but also keep all of your content still downloaded. Let us know the results!

    A speaker icon in the lobby indicates that the console is picking up sound from the headset.

    Can you create a party chat, and check the circle around your Gamerpic, when you unplug the headset and plug it in again?

    Do you get a narrow circle border around your Gamerpic with the headset removed, and is the circle wider/thicker when you plug the headset in?

    Does the circle get thicker/thinner when you talk and pause talking, or does it stay thick all the time?

    If the circle in the party stays thick all the time while your headset is connected, you might have an electrical ground problem, where the headset is humming constantly.

    If you talk (or otherwise sound is picked up by the microphone), games will indicate who is talking by having a speaker icon next to their name, or above their character.

    Usually, only your team mates will see this indicator, so the enemy team can't see your location, even if you talk to your team mates.

    Thank. you for the reply. I have resolved the speaker issue (faulty headset) but after performing a soft factory reset the arrow icon is still present in game which gives my position away saying please shoot me. THOUGHTS
