Is this regarding the original Xbox One? Which Xbox Kinect version are you using? Is it connected directly or with an adapter?

Hi Matt!

Okay, this does sound more software related then hardware related.

You are not the first with this kind of issues with Kinect. More people are having issues with this.

You can find some more info here: Having trouble with Kinect mic in game chat (warzone) : r/xboxone

Make sure that everything is fully up to date, like your Xbox, the games etc.

Not sure why some games seems to work and why some games are having issues. Most likely it's just not supported by the game or it's having compatibility issues here and there.

I recommend to use a headset which basically most of the time do work.

Sorry for the bad news.

I do stream on twitch but this should not affect the in game voice chat though

Nope, should not affect it. So it does sound like it's more related to the game due incompatibility, unfortunately.
