Origin Attempting to Access Microphone

Got a notification from Bitdefender that Origin accessed my mic. I wasn't even playing any games through Origin at the time. My PC was basically idling.

 

Anyone else had this happen or have any idea why Origin would need to access it randomly?

If Origin is running, you could use it to VOIP to friends. I've got similar from Steam and battle.net just starting the software. Ended turning that notice off. I've got physical mute switch anyway.

Ah. Appreciate it. Didn't remember Origin having voice chat. Makes me feel a little better.
