Voice control requires reset

[AndrewB 7]

I having a problem with voice control... Everything starts off ok but after a period of time the voice activations stops working... I have to go into cfg enable button and then enable voice and everything is back to normal.. Sometime this last for a few commands then I have to complete the whole process again... Sometimes its fine for the remainder of the flight

 

Thanks

You mean you're losing audio or nothing appears in the Green Bar?

 

[AndrewB 7]

Both...   Normally when I speak the txt shows up in the green bar... When this problem starts FS2crew is not listening and there is no txt on the green bar...

Sounds like your USB port is going to "sleep".

Go into your Windows power options, and ensure your USB ports aren't going to "sleep".  There's an option to control them.

Best,

Is that the USB selective suspend setting ? I have disabled...

Yes, that's the one.

Are you using a USB hub?

Microphone is pluged into the rear of my monitor (so that could be deemed a hub)

After make the change in windows I completed a flight without a problem... I am going to complete another flight today so will advice

Ok after a couple of flights I am still having problems... I completed 15hr flight  ... 1 hr from destination FS2Crew voice stopped working.  Call out where working but I was unable to respond with my microphone... This time a reset did not help.

Regards,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I wouldn't use the USB port behind your monitor.

Try using a port on your Tower, preferably one on the back of the machine.

When swapping USB ports, retrain your voice.

I thought of doing that.  Microphone is now plugged directly into my PC USB... Did a quick flight and its working at the moment

Longer flight tomorrow...
