The PlayStation
Home has
been updated to 1.04 to help with the connection problem to the server. As part of the update, voice chat has been temporarily disabled so the only ways you can communicate with others now that aren't on your friends list is either through emoting or using a keyboard. So, perhaps just disabling the voice will ease up on the network traffic so Sony can find some ways to optimize the network. In any case, everyone will be silent in
Home for now.
