The Flight Deck / FSinn defaulting VATSIM to RogerWilco Voice
« on: January 05, 2012, 08:26:17 PM »
Hi there, was hoping someone could help.

I've been having problems with FSinn lately where I could not get any voice to work.  Recently figured out it's because the "Voice" radio button under the FSinn Control Panel was set to 'RW'.  I set it to 'VVL' and it works fine.

The problem is, every time the ATC list refreshes, it seems to keep popping it back to RW, and I have to re-select VVL.

Anyone know why this may be happening and how to get it fixed permanently?  I have RogerWilco disabled (as well as TeamSpeak).

Thanks.
