I configured the sound exactly the same as in TeamSpeak and Discord which work fine but in xPilot I can't hear anything from the controller. I was on TeamSpeak with the controller and the same time to troubleshoot and neither of us could figure it out. He could hear me over xPilot but I could not hear him. I have no idea how to troubleshoot this. Any Ideas?

I had exactly this problem. If it’s the same thing here then xPilot is not being automatically allowed through Windows Firewall. You have to go in and give make a new rule to give xPilot permission for inbound / outbound traffic.

In contrast when you install a program like Teamspeak or Discord a rule is automatically created. I have no idea why it doesn’t do it for xPilot (or xSqwakbox, incidentally. I’m not sure about Swift)

Anyway just add a custom rule to give it access and it should just instantly start working.
