HLLV Voice Chat: Keys, Channels, and Current Audio Issues
A current-build-safe way to separate local, squad, and command communication without copying stale keybinds.
If proximity, squad, and command input all stop responding at once, treat it as an unresolved current-build report—not just a bad keybind. First check whether the in-game speaking indicator appears, then check the input device and Windows, channel bindings, and the official issue status. Hotfix 1 lists PS5 cut-outs as fixed, while distorted EOS proximity voice and keybind issues remain under investigation.

- STEP 01
Press the current voice binding and watch for the in-game speaking indicator. If no indicator appears for any channel, record that symptom before changing settings.
- STEP 02
Check whether the microphone works in Windows and another voice app, then confirm the input and output devices selected by the game.
- STEP 03
Check the current channel bindings and test proximity, squad, and command one at a time. Do not assume an old key list still matches your platform.
- STEP 04
Compare the symptom with the official status: PS5 audio cut-outs are listed as fixed, but distorted or robotic EOS proximity voice and keybind issues remain under investigation.
- STEP 05
Record platform, input device, channel, build, and whether the indicator appeared before reporting or retrying. Rebinding or reinstalling alone is not proof of a local fix.
Player notes from the field
These are player observations for handling match-to-match differences. They are not official rules and do not replace the direct answer above.
All three channels can fail together
One current player reports proximity, squad, and command inputs all stopped responding, even after changing bindings and reinstalling; the microphone still worked in Windows and another game. That does not identify a universal fix, but it tells you to capture the full symptom before blaming one key.
Confidence boundary: Single unresolved player report; useful as a symptom, not a diagnosis.
Open field source · Voice inputs stopped working ↗Use the indicator to split input failure from voice transport
If the in-game speaking indicator never appears, start with device selection and bindings. If it appears but other players cannot hear you, preserve the platform and build details and compare the official EOS issue status instead of claiming the PS5 fix covers every platform.
Confidence boundary: Diagnostic ordering is practical advice; official status still separates fixed and investigated symptoms.
Open field source · Official voice issue notes ↗If it doesn’t work
- The physical key assigned to each voice channel is an individual settings choice and can vary by platform.
- Hotfix 1 lists PS5 audio cut-outs as fixed. The same official launch notes still list distorted or robotic EOS proximity voice and keybind issues as under investigation; do not read the PS5 fix as an all-platform audio fix.
- The official notes separate a PS5 audio cut-out fix from still-investigated distorted or robotic EOS proximity voice and keybind issues. A current player report describes all three input channels failing even after rebinding and reinstalling; keep that symptom visible without promising a repair.
