Voice chat not working with Chromium version on

[Floppa]

Ight so when i put my gmod to the "chromium" version as told to see the youtube on tvs in-game.
My voice chat doesn't work, when i click test microphone it wont do anything but when i change the game beta version to "none" it works fine.

Anybody had this problem before and yall know if there's a fix?

Press Windows + I and go to audio go down until it says "Microphone" and select the one that you use. after that it should work

@Floppa are you still having this problem

 

[Floppa]

are you still having this problem

Yes, i am. It would be great to get it fixed so i can see videos on tv and that other thing in f1.

 

[DanielRabbit]

Because this could have a few solution that may or may not fix your problem.
So if you can't talk by chance you need to change your microphone that you can find in sound settings and change to the preferred mic/ Input

If that doesn't work try message swiftersy on discord or add me and i can try to discover your issue

Does the 64 bit executable have acces to your mic in the windows privacy settings? I had this with Discord the other week after a windows update disabled *all* mic permissions, drove me nuts.

if you have multiple input sources enabled, your mic won't work. You should disable other input sources in windows sounds settings

Small info, i do not have other sources enabled. Only my single microphone.

 

[DanielRabbit]

Floppa i only see the option of reinstalling gmod to clear all errors from your computer so you can run the game ( With Mic ) Properly

 

[DanielRabbit]

Floppa friend swiftersy i will try in every way to fix your problem to the max

Sounds like it's a common issue. People on Github fixed it by using DSOAL - try downloading the DLLs from here and place them in your garrysmod/bin/win64/ folder.

Up to you but I would give this a go first - will save you some time. Just extract this and paste the contents over your bin folder. It won't replace anything so you've nothing to lose.
