Yeah, tried it again Vanilla and same issue, Tried now with two separate mics, making sure they were the default device, restarting my pc every time (Overkill) and still no success.

When I try to do the auto-adjust, it flickers on screen for a brief moment, then goes away, I suppose I could do ANOTHER reinstall of the game

Are you running any mods?
The display flickering doesn't sound like normal behaviour

Ran it fully vanilla to try this

I disabled literally everything, every mod, every DLC

#

I've tried Changing Profiles too, nothing else

torn totem Jan 22, 2025, 12:30 AM

#

Maybe try a computer restart? I'm not entirely sure where to go from there to be honest.
I assume the microphone is detected in other applications just fine?

brazen cosmos Jan 22, 2025, 12:32 AM

#

Yeah, Like I said previously I've restarted multiple times, and to add, this has been a continuance for about a week and a bit.

Both my Headset Mic/Boom Mic work in every other application/game etc (Except DayZ, Thanks Bohemia:3) I've unplugged both and had only one active at a time, made sure whichever one I want to try is the Default device, restart my game/pc every time I change a variable

#

I just don't get it, There's forum/reddit posts that date a decade+ with the same issue as me, unanswered/unsolved, Why in gods name did Bohemia make it such a pain in the arse to change your input, they let you change your output!

#

Makes no sense either, these mics worked on Arma3 a few months ago

brazen cosmos Jan 22, 2025, 12:59 AM

Just did a fresh reinstall of Arma 3 with the same results, all mods deleted. Im stumped

It cant have anything to do with my ports right?

Launched again in 64bit, no longer works

brazen cosmos Jan 22, 2025, 10:21 AM

brazen cosmos

Genuinely at this point the only variable I can consistently reproduce is changing from 64-bit to 32-bit, my mic works in-game and I get no flicker of the Auto-Adjust UI, It works fine, however. With using 32-bit, Im now experiencing crashes unlike before.

I've had no problems with my Output audio, simply my Input does not work on 64-bit Arma 3. Flickering like this in the UI

The RPT log, lists what audio output device is used, but afaik not the input
The input is also not selectable/switchable because legacy mess

#

It can be that your device simply refuses to support the format we request.
But, then it also shouldn't work in 32bit

Run this from game folder.
And send RPT log after trying the microphone and it not working

Go into your windows audio setting, recording devices, your microphone.
The properites of that, then in advanced it shows the "format" that it uses, what's it say there

The game wants 1 channel, 16bits 11025hz

I mean, if you've got a bunch of Exe's i could try, I wouldn't mind giving them a go if it's not a bother, will probably spit out the same error code

#

It's odd, as i've used the same headset for Arma for years with no issues, it's not like I can even make my mic go through a third-party app, as it'll just not work in Arma

A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system.
This reads to me like it was passed an ID for a device that doesn't exist, like there are devices 0, 1 and 2 and it tried to use 3.

but I'm not even sure what API you're using for input.

grizzled narwhal Jul 7, 2025, 10:40 AM

The thing is we're using the same windows API on 32bit and 64bit.
We are using them the exact same way, trying to use the same device.
On 64bit the API fails, on 32bit it works.
I don't think there's anything I can do about it. Also this problem started appearing out of the blue, without us having made any changes

#

Now this is a coincidence..
I just randomly was reading this https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2012/02/14/64-bit-made-easy/

At the very bottom, they describe a microsoft bug in waveOutOpen that would cause it to fail on 64bit.
Our audio input device code, uses waveInOpen.

Its not the same thing, but its quite close.. And its a bug that would only happen on 64bit..

#

That mistake, would also explain the error message "A device ID has been used that is out of range for your system."

If the device handle there is truncated to 32bit, it would be out of range
I still can't fix it though

#

Wine also had a bug due to 32bit truncation https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/commit/37c19e7a877e942f446a156ecb515797c782b7b9

Though that is slightly different, that function actually takes 64bit argument.
The one we're using takes 32bit, even on 64bit system

#

And that still doesn't explain why only some users are affected :/

#

Congratulations your internal ticket number is 57000 Very fancy number

barren fractal Jul 18, 2025, 4:52 PM

#

Most people never use the audio input :P

#

Does it continually reallocate chunks for audio input, or is it re-using the same buffer?

#

I would guess it's this, and only people who manage to allocate 4GB before the first voice input get hit:

Memory allocations on Windows default to starting at low addresses

Arma RPT

Arma generates a .rpt log file each time it's run, which contains a lot of information like the loaded mods, or any errors that appear, this log file can be very useful for troubleshooting problems.

To get to your RPT files press Windows+R and enter %localappdata%/Arma 3

Additionally see the wiki page for more info: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Crash_Files

To share an rpt log here, please use a website like https://pastebin.com/ (Set expiry time to 1 week or less) to upload the full log, that way the people helping you can take a look at it and try to figure out the problem you're having together with you.

Windows has two input device defaults in two different places.

There's one in control panel and one in settings.

I actually have them set to two different devices.

God knows which APIs use which one.

@barren fractal You are showing the playback tab though, interesting would be the recording one. I have a setup here that is using a Rode mic and there is a mic attached to my SteelSeries Arctic headset, but I've never used it and I suspect I would have to set it in the Sonar app as the primary mic and then also in Windows and pretend my Rode doesn't exist, just to try both 100 % without possible interference. Will try that this weekend.

barren fractal Aug 4, 2025, 10:22 PM

#

Hmm. What does it use "default communication device" for then...

I guess once upon a time they had an idea that people would use different outputs for general sound and voice chat or something?

Looks like you can split them in recording too.

@sleek wraith What is your microphone btw?

sleek wraith Hi Guys look How I did, and now, my microphone works! Let me know if it worked ...

Setting "singleVoice" is nonsense. It has absolutely nothing to do with microphone input.
Its for the ingame "radio" transmission voice (no, not VoN)

fringe cove Sorry I haven't checked myself which is listed as input? It should be Focusrite

I pushed a new build #arma3_branch_changelog
It logs which audio input device is used, please try again (just going to audio options, and running adjust sensitivity once should be enough) and send me RPT of that.
looking for the Selected Audio Input: and Audio input initialized or Audio input failed to initialize

Will do, thank you for your ongoing efforts!

so if I look at the rpt, just from knowing my system, I assume that the Sonar app for the Arctic Nova always prefers its own microphone as standard input, no matter what I change. But since the mic is not actually activated in the software, it makes sense that nobody can hear me. I am blaming the Sonar app. Also another special curiosity, in the Sonar app by SteelSeries, the Rode mic is recognized as priority, not the Artic Nova built-in mic.

Hi. It is good to know that. I uninstalled the sound drivers from my computer and let windows reinstalled it . I also Remember I ran a local test with the in game "Auto Adjust " button, I and spoke normally during the adjustment, and then the microphone's volume moved. I joined an online match it was working. And I configured the windows defender that Ignore all the folders related to arma 3. Now I don't know which one fixed the issue. Cheers.

Hmm, that virtual audio input is stereo. That can't be common with real ones.

It should just be this windows thing. But the sonar app could be forcing its own to stay as default I guess?

#

So anyone else still having issues? or all solved now?

fringe cove Aug 6, 2025, 5:20 PM

#

Same issues for me, I think. Let me do some testing.

Nothing else was activated, only the Mic that I intend to use with Arma. Nobody could hear me, but my name did show up in game when I pressed Caps.

20:08:14 Selected Audio Input: Analogue 1 + 2 (Focusrite USB Audio) - Channels: 2, Freq: 96000
20:08:14 Audio input initialized at 16000Hz 1ch
yeah the game selected that anlogue one this time, and it seems to have gone all fine without errors

#

And the audio display in the windows settings does move/show activity when you speak into your mic?

#

Its stereo, maybe thats it? Maybe your input only comes on the right channel, but the game only uses the left channel?

#

Also someone should tell the LYL admins to increase their VoN quality, 16kHz is bad lol

fringe cove Aug 6, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

Will tell them 😄 So I should try Mono then and see if that fixes it?

grizzled narwhal Aug 7, 2025, 8:21 AM

Try all the things 😄

Anyone here have the same microphone issues on DayZ?
