Steam streaming microphone что это
I used the steam link once on my desktop and then I think some drivers was installed. Now I have 3 devices listed on my Device Manager:
Microphone (Steam Streaming Microphone)
Speakers (Steam Streaming Microphone)
Speakers (Steam Streaming Microphone)
Since I am not using the steam link anymore, I want to get rid of there devices. Anyway they are not real devices plugged in my computer. But I tried to uninstall the devices and didn’t work. As long as I reboot my computer or scan for hardware changes, they get back.
I don’t understand why there devices can keep there when my computer has already no connection with the steam link and why I can not uninstall them. Any idea steam community? Thanks in advance.
I’ve got the same problem and until 20 minutes ago I was reading this post. I want to post a solution for all the users that have the same issue.
How to remove the Steam Streaming Speakers/Microphone
1. Go to Sound Settings
2. Disable the «Steam Streaming Speakers» (SSS in short)
3. Right Click on SSS and click on properties
4. Once it’s open click on the «Properties» inside the «Controller information» box
5. Near the bottom left corner there’s a button called «Change settings» that requires Administrative rights. click it
6. Once the properties window refreshes go to Driver Tab
7. Click on «Uninstall Device»
8. Click again on the uninstall button once the new window appear.
Warning: Don’t check on «Delete the driver software for this device» or you’ll uninstall Steam as well.
Once it’s uninstalled close all properties windows and you’re done. No device shown anymore. And no device switch is performed automatically anymore. Have fun 🙂
Those actually are part of Steam itself. I don’t own the Steam Link but I do have those in my audio devices as well. Uninstalling Steam should fix the problem.
steam adds them when you begin streaming (to link or other pc), and they are not always removed when you stop streaming
Isn’t there an Option on the STEAM Link Menu it’s self.
That lets you turn off those settings?
Which would actually fix the issue you are having?
I’ve not tried this myself, so I dunno if this fixes the problem.
But when using the STEAM Link. the Link outputs it’s own STEAM Speakers,
onto your TV, kinda like it streams the audio.
But if you change that Option in the STEAM Link Menu.
You can change it to show your TV’s Speakers instead.
I believe you can also set it up so that you can use other Speakers as well.
Which would or should fix the issue you are having with your PC or Windows Desktop,
displaying STEAM Speakers, or STEAM Streaming Speakers under Audio.
I did however noticed that the STEAM Link in BETA Mode has less features.
But i’m using a non-beta version of the STEAM Link.
So I dunno which version you are using.
Lastly, I am not possitive if the Microphone Option works the same way or not.
I’m not possitive. If this might help.
But I had an issue with STEAM, where a friends Account got stuck on my PC,
& everytime I would go to Sign-In, STEAM thought I was signing in on someone elses Account.
I’ve tried wiping out every single inch of STEAM off my PC,
& yet even after all that work, I would still find my friends Account linked to my PC.
I had to completely re-install windows to fix the issue.
The STEAM Speaker issue, if you have tried everything, & can’t get it to stop showing up.
It could possibly be more hastle to fix then, to just say screw it, & re-install windows.
But there is 1 other Place you can look besides the Device Manager.
Sadly I can’t remember what it’s called. or how to get there.
But there usually is STEAM files in that area on the PC. Is it possible that, the STEAM Speakers
thing could be found there as well?
Ah, here it is. Can this help? If you looked in the Registry Editor for anything STEAM Related?
Would that help fix the STEAM Speakers & STEAM Microphone?
Or would that not be found there?

Thanks. I did reinstall the windows and solved the issue. (The reinstallation was actually long planed and the wired devices issue motivated me to do that.)
Now I reinstalled steam and everything is still good.

Настройка микрофона в стиме
Steam (Стим) представляет собой сервис для распространения индивидуальных и многопользовательских компьютерных игр. Программа обеспечивает обновление и установку игрового контента, сохранение его в облаке и текстовую и голосовую связь между пользователями. При общении в голосовых чатах могут возникнуть проблемы, как включить и настроить микрофон в Стим.
Как настроить микрофон в Стим
Для того чтобы общаться в интернете с партнёрами по игра, в Steam предусмотрена возможность передачи/приёма текстовых сообщений и голосовой канал связи. Игровая платформа постоянно обновляется, поэтому в последних версиях, настройки голосовой связи немного отличаются от тех, что были раньше. Чтобы голосовая связь работала сначала нужно знать, как разрешить микрофон в Стим. Отдельной кнопки включения/выключения микро в программе не предусмотрено. Устройство нужно выбрать. В этом же окне выбирается устройство, предназначенное для вывода. Это могут быть наушники или акустические колонки.
В старых версиях идентификация и настройка микрофона Стим микро выполнялись следующим образом:
В этом окне выполнялась настройка голосового канала и подключались дополнительные регулировки для улучшения качества звука. Сначала в графе «Устройство ввода звука» указывается микро, который будет активирован. Его тип можно посмотреть на вкладке «Запись» блока «Звук» в панели управления персонального компьютера. Ниже указывается выходное звуковое устройство. Двумя ползунковыми регуляторами выбирается уровень чувствительности голосового прибора и громкость звука в динамиках или наушниках. Проверить микрофон Стим можно контролируя перемещение меток в графе «Проверка». Чем чувствительность выше, тем дальше в правую сторону перемещаются метки. В нижней часто окна находится строка управления микрофоном Steam. Если выбрать режим автоматической передачи голоса, то устройство будет всегда включено и в канал связи пойдут все звуки из помещения, где находится микро. Предпочтительнее включать канал звука только в момент передачи голосового сообщения. Для этого выбирается соответствующий пункт и программируется любая клавиша, которая будет включать микро.
Как проверить микрофон в Стим
После обновления приложения, настройка микрофона в Steam выполняется по другому. Окна немного изменились, и доступ к регулировкам голосового канала выполняется иначе. В общих настройках пропал пункт «Голос». Чтобы попасть на вкладку управления двухсторонней связью нужно выполнить следующие действия:
В этом окне выполняются все настройки канала связи. Сначала в соответствующих графах прописываются устройства ввода и вывода. В графе «Устройство голосового ввода» можно поменять микрофон в Стим. Голосовой прибор, интегрированный в ноутбук не всегда удобен для общения, поэтому многие используют внешнее устройство для трансляции звука. Чтобы не возникли проблемы при голосовом общении, микро должен быть активирован в настройках «Звук/Запись» операционной системы. Ниже граф выбора устройств находятся два горизонтальных ползунка, которыми устанавливаются уровни чувствительности микро и громкости звука.
Как изменить микрофон в Стим
Работа звукового прибора изменяется в графе «Тип голосовой передачи». Здесь выбирается способ общения пользователя с партнерами или другими игроками. В режиме постоянной передачи голоса сетевые коллеги по играм будут слышать все звуки, которые воспринимает голосовое устройство. Режим включается кнопкой «Постоянная передача голоса». Это не всегда удобно, поэтому многие пользователи выбирают режим «При нажатии кнопки». Там, нажатием выбранной клавиши, можно включать трансляцию голоса, или, наоборот, выключать. В окне «Голосовые чаты» имеются дополнительные настройки звукового канала:
Устранение реверберации или эффекта эха будет актуальным, когда трансляция голоса осуществляется из пустого и гулкого помещения с резонирующим объёмом. Многократные отражения звуковых волн, сделают голос абсолютно неразборчивым. В большинстве случаев лучше, если подавление шумов включено постоянно. Автоматическая регулировка усиления включается по желанию пользователя. Это снимает проблему с постоянной подстройкой уровней. Кнопка «Порог голосовой передачи» представляет собой фильтр, который ограничивает величину внешнего звукового сигнала до определённого уровня. Он выбирается кнопками «Средний» или «Высокий». После окончания всех настроек и установок голосовой канал нужно проверить. Для этого используется графа «Настройка и проверка голосовой связи». Если качество связи окажется неудовлетворительным, то настройки следует повторить заново, добиваясь хорошего качества передачи и приёма голосовых сообщений.
Steam streaming microphone что это
Been battling this issue for about 12 hours straight now and I just can’t get any sound from my local microphone to go through to my streaming session. When starting up a game the virtual audio drivers are enabled and when checking the settings both in steam and on my playback devices in windows steam streaming microphone is used for voice. My microphone works perfectly fine on the local machine but nothing is registered in the streaming session.
I have disabled and uninstalled everything I can think about on the host machine that might interfere (which is also a brand new installation) and it’s driving me crazy so I added some funds to my account so that I can come here and ask for help. Is there a special trick I’m missing or any other known issues that I’m unaware of.
Does this actually work for people in general? Everything else with in-home streaming has worked perfectly fine just out of the box.
Nope and a bit surprised I cannot find any information anywhere regarding this as it seems to be a supported feature that just, for some reason, doesn’t seem to work.
I ended up downloading a program which lets me share USB ports over my network and then shared my local headset with the server. Pretty annoying though to have to start up the stream and then go into settings on the remote computer every time and change my playback and recording settings to use the shared headset.
Was troubleshooting the same problem, figured that uninstalling the Steam Streaming audio drivers on the Host and letting them re-install themselves might fix the issue; except that now they won’t.
I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Steam as well as disabled and re-enabled Steam In-Home Streaming on the Host, moved Steam to the Beta Client, rebooted the Host PC between all of the prior steps. no matter what I do, launching a streaming session does not prompt for installation of the Steam Streaming drivers.
So I’ve gone a step backward now. at least before I could see the Steam Streaming drivers in my Audio Control and even though they didn’t work, at least they were there. No matter what I do I can’t get those drivers to install again.
I am having the exact same issue,except my game will launch. I removed the devices from the audio device panel, and removed the drivers inside the device management panel. I rebooted the client and the host PC, and they both let me go right back into game with no prompt to reinstall drivers. This seemed odd to me, but I kept going. Lo and behold, the mic still isnt working, and the Steam Streaming audio devices never returned.
I even went as far as removing Steam, rebooting, and trying to reinstall steam. It detects the streaming client, and the client detects the host, but again neither of them install drivers or prompt to install drivers.
I now just installed the Beta, under advice from a steam article. Still no driver prompts on my end.
Windows 10 Pro x64 Build 1709.
Device is a Turtle Beach P11 Headset. I have tested the mic on 3 PCs and the device works fine as well as that the recordings sound clear. If anyone has new steps let me know, I am pretty exhausted with this for now. I may just go back to running with my device plugged in to the PC for the time being.
Steam streaming microphone что это
Hello!
I have two windows computers I’m trying to stream between using steam. It works beautifully except my microphone is not passed to the remote machine. I’ve verified it works locally (Logitech G930), but the remote computer is not detecting any input through the «Steam Streaming Microphone».
Client computer is Running Windows 10 Professional x64
Host is headless (no monitor) and running Windows Server 2016 Datacenter. Windows remote audio is turned on.
Like I said, everything works (I can remotely play at 60fps with game audio). I ran into an issue trying to play with friends where my mic wasn’t working, and it’s turned into a much larger headache than I expected. Does anyone have any advice?
Can’t for the life of me get this working.
I tried two other headsets, same deal. I have a logitech g930 and g430, neither is redirecting the microphone properly. I installed virtualhere on my desktop and the client on the remote computer. I’m able to redirect the device, but still nothing.
I did a test just now from my laptop to my desktop on my home LAN and microphone redirection simply doesn’t work. Does anyone have this working?
I even tried setting up a dummy discord account on the remote computer and doing some magic to route the call audio to a logical input device and still no dice. I don’t even know what to try anymore.
Found out the gain was too low for my laptop to desktop streaming. Cranked it up and could barely hear it. The same was not true for the headless server. What’s odd is the default recording device on my desktop at the time was a different input. If I set it to the steam microphone or disabled all inputs except the steam microphone it would not work.
I’m not sure it matters, but I’m trying to get this working to my ec2 instance. I don’t understand why audio would pass but not microphone input. I wish steam had better documentation or logging related to this. What few logs there are aren’t terribly helpful on the microphone side.
I’m having the same issue and got the same response from support. Here’s the text of what I sent:
Description: The Steam Streaming Microphone is not working on my Remote Play host.
Expected behavior: Steam Remote Play transmits my voice to and from the game on the host computer for game-based voice chat (NOT Steam voice chat, though that doesn’t work either).
Observed behavior: While the Steam Streaming Speakers device seems to function normally, and even outputs audio over my headset connected to the client, the Steam Streaming Microphone device does not send my voice input to the remote computer.
Additional context:
— The Remote Play client is the machine I’ve submitted the ticket from and should be available in the SystemReportDetails attached to this ticket.
— The Remote Play host is a Windows 2016 Server instance running an Nvidia P100 GPU. The full dxdiag output is attached.

I have exactly the same problem, the Steam support does not help because there are too many possible error sources.
On the host a streaming microphone and speaker is created, but only the speaker seems to work.
It seems that the microphone is simply ignored, because nothing gets through to the host, but the microphone is identified and used without problems in steam chat
I am a little baffled to just learn that «Voice recording over streaming is not currently supported» (see: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3629-RIAV-1617 ). Since I am using a mic for the first time since last week, playing PUBG with friends. I actually thought it was PUBG’s doing that the mic was not working properly. And while it took some hassle to make it work, it did! Not through the game (in-game), but via steam-friends-chat. And that worked. Until I went away for the weekend and upon coming back it didn’t work. But that’s computers for ya. Though I cannot seem to get it to work again and I don’t know why or how I got it working in the first place!
Now I have noticed that when I am on my host desktop-computer, and I enter steam chat. It works. I can start a mic-test, I can see my avatar moving and the VU meter moving next to it. I can do the same on my laptop client, the mic works on both, and in Steam. But when I launch PUBG and shift-tab to the overlay. To chat again. My mic doesn’t work. And eventhough I am getting at crazy levels I swear to you, it did work. It did work shift-tab overlay, chatting, on my laptop while streaming PUBG to my laptop.
Anyway before this turns into an essay or so, I just wanted to express that I too am eager to have voicechat-over-stream. It is missed.

Hard to believe it’s been three years since my last comment on this thread, but wanted to come give it a hard BUMP.
Still on Ubuntu client and Windows Host, but now it’s 20.04 and Win10.
Just tried again to see if this was implemented, Pulseaudio shows my mic being recorded by the steam_streaming device, however on the (Windows) host side nothing. Also noticed steam no longer installs audio drivers for the windows host. Will start a new post for this. As far as I’m concerned this post needs to be necroed until we get this as a feature!
I’ve done the android WO mic, I’ve used VBAN and Voicemeeter, and even some pulseaudio trickery, and while some worked better than others, none of them worked 100% of the time. Latency was always a huge issue. The only thing I haven’t tried that’s been mentioned on this thread is Teamspeak server client or two Discord accounts (of the two I would think Teamspeak would be better, for confining traffic to the LAN thus reducing latency).
Here’s hoping this has been implemented and I just missed something.
