I'm attempting to play Fallout 76 with some friends while voice chatting via Discord. I can hear my friends and all other sounds through my headset just fine, but there's no in game audio at all. From Googling, I've found that turning off microphone access to Fallout 76 can fix this, however, it seems as if Microsoft has taken away the ability to turn off mic access on a per app basis (unless it's a UWP app, see below) and only allows it to be turned off for all desktop apps. Clearly this isn't a good solution, as that would also turn off mic access for Discord. Does anyone happen to know any workarounds for this?
Edit: If anyone runs into this issue in the future, I managed to fix it by going to Settings > System > Sound, clicking on Headset Earphone (in my case it was Razer Nari Ultimate - Chat) and changing the format from 1 channels, 16 bit, 48000 Hz to 1 channels, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD Quality).
