<p>OK, So my voice chat <strong><em>does</em></strong> work at the moment, but it keeps defaulting to my speakers.</p><p>I have a C-Media USB Headset. </p><p>Windows 7 is configured to use it as the default communications device.</p><p>On 'Character Select' I can set up Voice Chat to use the headset for both input and output.</p><p>On 'Character Select' I can test the headset microphone and playback the sound to my headset.</p><p>As soon as I get in game, the output switches back to 'Default' which ends up being my Speakers.</p><p>Input is unaffected, I can still talk using my headset.</p><p>Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you for reading!</p>

<p>I am having the problem too, and just sent a /bug.</p><p>To me it looks like there is a problem with the name of the device, where there are 3 trailing spaces. when I save the options from charcter select I have the following entry in my eq2_recent.ini:vc_output_device Lautsprecher (C-Media USB Audio Device )</p><p>I have no idea what I can do about it. I tried to edit the device name in the registry without luck.</p><p>And it is really strange that the switching of the voice output works in the character select, but not in game.</p>
