STRAIGHT TO THE SOLUTION

Test the correct microphone under System → Sound and allow desktop apps to access it.

Review the input device, voice activation or push-to-talk mode and its assigned key in Apex.

Check squad mute settings. Restart after a device change and test with a teammate.

Why does the microphone work in another game?

Each application can use its own device and activation settings.
