A huge chunk of players have been complaining about the voice chat issues lately, and most of it could be attributed to the lack of permission given to the game itself by your platform.
The new open-world game Sea of thieves has taken everyone by a swift, and it has developed quite an impressive fan base given the fact that its a very recent release, synonymously there have been reports of players facing some generic, mostly fixable errors.
It is a direct result of overhyped players quickly jumping into the gameplay before sorting the various prompts that appear asking for hardware permissions regarding access to hardware, i.e., the mic.
