    Windows Xbox (Beta) App Push to Talk is not working properly


    When I attempt to enable push to talk within the Xbox Beta application (I was playing Sea of Thieves in the background), the push to talk simply opens my mic constantly. For example, normally my mic picks up when I talk or am typing, but if I enabled push
    to talk, then my mic was constantly picking up. It was even picking up when I physically muted the microphone.

    I tried setting push to talk to "~" and also "Q", and it always had to same fate. I also attempted to set push to talk to one of the buttons on my mouse, but that wouldn't even record as a key.

    In the end, how do I make push to talk actually work on the Xbox Beta app through Windows?

    Thank you,

    :)

    Hi GalletaSC,

    Thanks for your post. I understand you are attempting to use your bumper as a push to talk button for voice chat on your Windows 10 PC. Are you attempting to use PTT for Xbox Party Chat on your PC or using other software like Discord, TeamSpeak, Mumble,
    etc.? Different software may only accept input from the keyboard instead of a controller.

    The Xbox Beta App has a push to talk function for party chat, to enable it visit Settings>Audio>Enable Push to Talk.

    Please keep us updated.

    Xbox Beta App for PC is completely broken

    This page has some troubleshooting steps regarding the Xbox app beta for Windows 10 version 1903. Please also keep in mind that beta
    software is not finished, and may misbehave. So you could have everything set up properly and it still may not work.

    Difficulties downloading AoE2 DE

    check if your windows 10 is updated, push the windows button, then search windows uptade, go there and check if there are updates, update windows, and the go to the store and check the update section which is on the upter right part of the screen, once
    you have checked update all the apps, one of those apps must be the store itself and the xbox (beta) app of your pc

    Issue with game invites on PC

    console companion is the better choice plus when you use game bar if you click out of the bar to play the game and you have push to talk enabled the game bar has to be open for you to talk. or you could always download the xbox beta app.

    Push to talk option for PC app "Xbox Console Companion"

    There is not an option for push to talk on the xbox companion app on pc.
    Does anyone know of any software for Windows 10 that will allow PTT while using the Xbox console companion?
