How to Fix Mic Not Working Issue in Phasmophobia

If you are playing with your friends, you can communicate via discord if you are getting this error. Also try not to alt+tab in or out of the game because that is what is causing the voice recognition issue. Instead, you need to click on the icon of the game to get back into it.
