No Input Audio for PC Link App
I have tried everything, hours worth of work. For some reason, I can hear everyone around me, game audio, you name it. But when I cast my headset to the Meta Horizon Link App, i cannot hear myself. I have repaired the app, uninstalled the app, messed with a million settings. It seems the OVAD isnt registering at all. I know my Quest 3s mic works, it just seems that it is muted (its not) Does anyone have something to fix this? I really dont wanna have to buy a external mic just to stream games. This is honestly such an outrage.
Meta Quest 3 not capturing in game audio
When I'm recording a video it captures my voice but no in game audio. I've been trying to fix this for hours now. I've tried everything from completely rebooting the vr to checking all the settings making sure there correct and also checking for any updates. I really dont understand why its not working.Quest 3 has no audio when connected to PC
I recently get the Quest 3, and for some reason I can't get the audio to come through my headset when it is connected to my PC using a link cable or AirLink. It shows as a device in the sounds settings and it is enabled in the audio Control Panel Playback section. I never had this problem on my Quest 2. I have updated the drivers, tried disabling the Nvidia High Definition Audio driver. Any help greatly appreciated! Note: This green audio bar next to the Oculus audio device stays at half-full whether the computer is playing or not. Not sure if that helps
Allow option for internal speakers to work with headphones connected / 3.5mm / BT
Hello, Quest 3 feedback suggestion: Allow option for internal speakers to work with 3.5mm or bluetooth headphones connected. Reason: For devices such as the Woojer haptic feedback vests, straps or subwoofers, you cannot use the built in speakers due to connecting these either via the 3.5mm jack or bluetooth. Adding this as an option would not hurt anything, heck you could even add a pop-up to note that this setting has been changed and where to find it each time something is connected. Advantage: There would then be no need to use additional headphones when wearing a haptic vest, haptic strap or when using a subwoofer. Headphones can be cumbersome or not even possible to use with most VR headstraps. Many thanks for listening.No audio when Casting to my phone via the Meta Horizon app
As the title says, when I try to cast from our Quest 3S to my phone (Samsung Galaxy 25 Ultra), video comes through fine but no audio is cast. Which is an issue, given that we're trying to watch my nephew play BeatSaber and can't hear the music. I've tried uninstalling & reinstalling the app, power cycling the headset and phone, ensured both are on the same wifi network, and making sure all software is up to date. I can't find a setting that'll affect it. Thanks for any help you can give!
no audio on airlink and steam link
airlink has worked fine until today. all audio is gone but outside of link is fine. ive deleted all third party softwares and voice changer apps and rebooted my computer multiple times. ive tried every solution on here but nothing works. here are my settings. output: input: link app: quest settings on link app: please im a somewhat popular streamer i need the solution quickAudio no longer works when connecting to Windows 11 via AirLink/Link Cable
[Note as of 12/6/2025 - For me, this was fixed by the latest update to the Horizon Link software, and joining the Beta Channel is no longer needed.] The Problem: As of 11/26, I no longer get any audio through my Quest3 headset while I'm connected to my Win11 PC via AirLink. This has worked for me for years, and this is the first time I've had an issue with it. The only change I'm aware of, is that I did a 'Repair' using the Oculus Installer to solve a different issue I was having (a "can't find OculusClient.exe" error). After the Repair (which looked successful), I started having this audio issue. To be clear, audio works fine for me in the headset when I'm not connected over AirLink. Once in AirLink, I get no audio from any desktop Oculus app that I run. I've tested a few. When I leave AirLink, I get local audio in my headset again. Solutions I've Tried: There are a fair number of support threads on this kind of issue here and in Reddit, and I believe I've Googled and found them all. None of them have solved my issue. Here is the list of things I've done: [Note: Just because a solution didn't work for me doesn't mean these are bad solutions. Some of these have worked for others. Indicated by a (*). As of 12/4 the solution marked with (***) now works for me!] (Last updated 12/4/25) Use cable instead of AirLink (*) Run the repair using the Meta Quest Link (Oculus) Installer (*) Uninstall Meta Horizon Link, reboot PC, reinstall the app, reboot PC and Quest 3, and try again Scan the Setup and Driver install logs for errors (I don't see a smoking gun, but the logs are attached to this post) (*) Manually uninstall the Oculus Virtual Audio Device input driver from device manager, then uninstall and reinstall Horizon Link (also rebooting in between steps again, to be sure) (*) Rename my Oculus Virtual Audio Device to "Headphones" (It used to be named "Quest VR", and it worked fine, but I changed it back to Headphones after reading another forum post) (***) Join the Horizon Link Beta Public Test channel, let the app update, reboot my PC and Quest, and trying again Unpair my Quest3, uninstall Horizon Link, delete ...AppData\Local\Oculus directory, reboot, reinstall, repair the Quest and try again Uninstall Horizon Link using Revo Uninstaller, let it do a complete post uninstall clean, reboot, reinstall, try again Reboot my PC and Quest 3 many times by now during various troubleshooting steps Obvious steps: make sure I can get audio on my PC through other outputs, make sure the volumes are correct, make sure that correct audio devices are selected at the right times, etc. My Settings Here are what the relevant settings on my PC look like when I'm connected via AirLink. Audio Devices Meta Link Program I have also tried all the combinations of Hear VR Audio from Computer and Hear Computer Audio in VR, but the screenshot below shows what used to work for me and now no longer works. Audio Devices The Virtual Audio device is present, enabled, and can get audio. It is also named "Headphones". NOTE: Something I find a little bit weird is that when I'm connected via AirLink, the volume is always showing at 1/2 level, even when I have no audio playing on my PC. When I disconect from AirLink, it stops doing this, and only shows the audio bar when something is actually playing. I don't know if this behavior occurred before my issue started, or if it coincides with it. Audio Devices Here are all the audio devices on my PC. I don't know exactly what I'm looking for, so I don't know if this is correct or not. It looks correct, although I do find it a bit strange there is no Oculus Virtual Audio Device under the Sound, video and game controllers section Drivers I can tell that the drivers are being updated whenever I install the Meta Quest Link Program, because the timestamp of these files is always updated NOTE: I do find it a bit strange that the Oculus Virtual Audio Device shows different driver information depending on where I look. Here it is in Win11 basic settings: Here it is in the Device Manager: Worth Mentioning (Windows error after Installation) Whenever I finish an installation or repair, I always get this error. I don't believe this is related to my audio issue, because my installation seems successful, as shown in my previous screenshots. But it's worth mentioning. NOTE: the Meta Quest Client is NO LONGER called 'oculus-client\OculusClient.exe', but simply 'oculus-client\Client.exe'. I don't know where on my PC there is old data pointing to the old filename, but it clearly affects the installer (even though I just downloaded the latest version from the website). I also had to manually fix my Meta Quest Link shortcut that had this same problem. I've been a user since the original retail Oculus, so maybe that's why this happened to me once the devs changed the client exe name; not sure. Again, I doubt it's even relevant. Obviously I didn't have this issue way back when I first bought my Quest 3 and set all this up. Thanks for any help with this issue.
Oculus 2 Game Audio Isn't Working
I've had my Oculus 2 for quite some time now, but recently I haven't been able to use it to play any games. When in the main hub the audio works fine coming out of the device, but the moment I open steam and try playing any of my games like I would before such as Beat Saber and BOXVR the audio stops working. If I look on my pc I am able to see that it says "Steam Link Audio is disabled one or more steam streaming audio endpoints are disabled" I have gone through all of my computer's settings to make sure everything is enabled and that I have the computer set to the correct audio output when playing, steams settings, meta quest phone and computer app, and the oculus's settings themselves and nothing works. I have even factory reset my Oculus to see if that would fix it, but no. I've also tried connecting wirelessly and wired to the PC How can I fix this??
