Xbox Game Bar Won't let me switch Voice Output.

Langi Tuifua · Aug 9, 2023

Hello Gamers,

Whenever I try to switch the voice output in my Xbox game bar, It will automatically switch it back to the default output on its own. Therefore I cannot change it to my desired output. Any suggestions? I would try to take a screenshot, but I can't figure it out.

As of right now, the default that it switches to is the Elgato sound capture. I've tried both unplugging my Elgato and uninstalling it and neither have worked.

Thanks!

:)

I figured out, I need to open the Elgato Sound capture app and switch it from "team chat" to "off"!

Thank you Lou, here's how to change your audio output:

Click the volume icon next to the clock;
Click the arrow next to the volume bar;
Switch to the desired audio device.

Let me know if this works.

Thanks,
Kyle

The only area I could find that had an option like that was to go under Preferences --> Voice, which then had options of Voice output, Game Volume, and Voice Volume. Both volumes set to max, output set to headset. Nothing has improved through switching them
however.
