Yes, I have this problem, too. Voice does work in principle, it just keeps dying on me. I will talk for a few seconds or even minutes, but then it suddenly stops completely. I still see myself as talking, but other people can't hear me at all. This seems to happen more frequently in laggy places than when I'm alone or with just a few people. Any ideas?

Turns out that that's not true. It seems to happen randomly. *deep sigh*

I started having similar issues after using my webcam with Skype and Yahoo Messenger.
The only thing that would work for me was to close SL, make sure none of those programs were running in the background, unplug my usb headset and plug it back in.
Then restart SL. You may want to remove any programs from your Startup folder that might try and take control of your headset. If you have a webcam with a microphone make sure its not somehow defaulting to that instead of your headset. And make sure you don’t have a loose connection with to your usb.
And if you don’t have a usb headset, I suggest you get one.

Thanks for your answer, DaQbet! I've made sure to close all other apps. Still having issues, but I think I've found out why it happens. I'll start a new thread, though, so as not to derail this one.
