Observed behaviour
Audio is always transmitting while using Voice Activity. It's made less noticeable if you're using Standard Noise Suppression.
Reproduction steps
- Disable Push-to-talk
- Set Activity threshold all the way to the right on the slider or tick on "Auto-set activity threshold."
- Disable Noise suppression to more clearly hear that the transmit is always on.
- Enter a channel with someone and see if they can here your background noise whilst not talking.
