First make sure you have your microphone enabled then per Co-pilot:

On Windows (Copilot App)
You can activate "Hey Copilot" voice wake-up:
1. Open Copilot Settings:
• Click your profile icon in the top-right corner of the Copilot app.
• Select Settings.
2. Enable Voice Activation:
• Toggle “Listen for ‘Hey Copilot’ to start a conversation”.
• Make sure your microphone is connected and working.
3. Start Talking:
• Say “Hey Copilot” followed by your question (e.g., “Hey Copilot, what’s the weather?”).
• You can also press the microphone icon to speak manually.

Thanks folks for the info. I doubt I'll ever have anything I want to say to copilot that's worth a $80 microphone purchase. I've never once used that app so far.
