This happens with me after every match. The settings reset and VOIP is enabled again.

 

Turning it on and off fixes the issue until the next match. 

I've discovered that if you mess with other audio settings, it turns off VOIP as well (if it was as "off" in the first place).

It was still an issue yesterday, and I don't see it mentioned in today's patch notes.

 

I were to add that you'll need to be without a party to reproduce the issue when it hit me that being in an empty party might also work as a workaround while waiting for it to get fixed.

That would of course only fixes it for your - people who's the only in a squad with a mic will still share their eating sounds, conversations with loved ones, etc with everyone without being aware of the issue and they lack of privacy.

This is extremely annoying. You can get round it by either muting all squad mates, but also by going into settings, turning VOIP back on, then back off again. That works for that server, but you have to do it every time you go into a new server. As you say, you can hear personal family conversations and stuff going on in the background which squad members are no doubt unaware of. DICE, please fix this!

Hi - I was hoping that this issue would be fixed in the latest 'debug' patch, but alas, no.

Same for me (ps4).

Part of the problem could be that I am using normal headphones (Bose QC 25 for Android) which have no on/off switch for mic input.

Game receives mic input and switches on the Voip option automatically (?)
