When Grounded is open, my audio is fine, but as soon as I join a multiplayer server it causes problems. My Sony WH-1000XM4 audio device switches to a two way (hands-free headset) device rather than the normal playback device. Whenever I have had similar issues, I can normally select the correct audio device in the program's settings, or disable the incorrect device in windows. The issue is that the device that grounded is using IS DISABLED, and grounded has no option to manually select your audio devices. This results in the incorrect microphone being used, and my audio playback quality dropping significantly.
I have tried:
disabling VOIP in game
setting the correct audio devices in my volume mixer (as suggested in this tread)
setting the correct audio devices in the x-box game bar party chat
using a different Bluetooth device (air pods pro, same issue)
Restarting my computer and re-installing my audio drivers
