When in a party or discord call in-game voice chat is completely disabled

Hello Stimuclate,

Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community.

Thank you for reaching out to us. This issue might be related to the party chat settings on your Xbox.

Before proceeding, I need to know more details so that we can get the best possible troubleshooting for you.

-Do you play on PC or console?
-Are you getting any error message?
-Have you tried using a different headset already?

Basing on the statement you provided above, here are some troubleshooting steps that you may try:



1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

2. Select "Profile & system" > "Settings" > "Ease of Access" > "Game chat transcription".

3. Turn off the "Transcribe other players' voices" option.

1. Discord Overlay Settings:
   
   • If you’re using Discord, check your overlay settings. Sometimes, the Discord overlay can interfere with in-game voice chat. Here’s what you can do:
     
     • Open Discord.
       
     • Go to User Settings (click on your profile picture in the bottom left corner).
       
     • Navigate to the Overlay tab under App Settings.
       
     • Slide the slider to the left next to the Enable in-game overlay option.
       
     • Apply the changes and check if Discord works properly after opening a game
       
2. Xbox Party Chat:
   
   • If you’re using Xbox Party Chat, ensure that you’re not simultaneously in a Discord voice channel on Xbox. Here’s how to switch:
     
     • Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
       
     • Select Parties & chats.
       
     • If you’re in a Discord voice channel, it will say “Discord” and the name of the voice channel.
       

If the issue still persists, try to log in using a different account and joint the same party. After that, kindly check if you are able to hear your friends.



If you continue to experience issues, please let me know and I can assist you further.

Hi Nathan,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues connecting to discord through your Xbox. For us to further isolate your issue, kindly share the exact error message that you received.

If you're connected to a Discord voice channel on your Xbox console, your party chat status will say “Discord” and the name of the voice channel that you're in. If you want to join or start an Xbox party chat, disconnect from the Discord voice channel so that you can switch over to game or party chat.

Hi there! I will do my best to help.

When did this issue start to occur?
Is this the first time you're trying to use Discord voice on Xbox console?
Did you make sure that you transferred the voice correctly? Please note that switching between Discord voice channels on console is not supported. You'll need to retransfer audio from Discord again to switch to a new voice channel.

Kindly check the link below for more information and steps regarding Discord. There's a complete guide there on how to transfer your voice chat to your console.
