Fix: COD Vanguard Mic Issue
Follow these simple and easy steps one by one and test your Microphone after each step to know the root cause of your issue:
1) Restart your Console or PC: The most common way of resolving most of the bugs in the game is by restarting the system or device. When a computer or console gets a fresh start, commonly occurring issues get easily resolved.

3) Check that your Headset is selected as an output device and input device: If you are experiencing this issue on PlayStation or Xbox, then set your headset as the primary Output Device by going into the sound settings. Also, do not forget to Mic Settings.
For Microsoft Windows players, go to your Sound settings and set your Headset as the input device for Microphone and output device for speakers. To check that your Microphone is working, speak something in it and see if the bar of the microphone goes up.
