Question

There is an issue with the microphone while streaming VRChat.

Since I switched from Quest2 to Quest3S, the sound quality of my microphone has worsened when streaming VRChat using Virtual Desktop. My friends tell me that my voice sounds distorted and unclear, which was not an issue on Quest2. I also tried streaming with Steam Link, which had a slight improvement in audio quality compared to Virtual Desktop, but the sound quality is still poor. Today, I will try using Air Link. It seems that only the audio quality in VRChat is very poor; the microphone quality is normal during screen recording. Is this a system issue or a bug in the VRChat game?

Hey there NightSpectrum !

 

We heard you loud and clear - and we'd love to help!

 

Please make sure that you have allowed the VRChat application to have access to your device's microphone, and make sure you have turned on audio permissions for the app as well.

 

If the issue still persists, get in touch with the VRChat Help Desk via their website.

 

Wishing you all the best!
