Feature request: Option to disable "turn on Xbox when turning on Wireless headsets"

Hi. My name is Brilliant, an independent advisor, happy to assist you today.

The Xbox Wireless Headset is designed to turn on your Xbox console automatically when you turn on the headset. This feature is intended to provide a seamless gaming experience for users. However, if you find this feature annoying, you can try the following steps to disable it:
1. Press and hold the power button on the headset for 10 seconds to reset the headset.
2. Connect the headset to your console using the USB cable.
3. Turn on your console manually using the Xbox button on the console.
4. Once the console is turned on, disconnect the USB cable from the headset.

This should disable the automatic turn-on feature of the headset.

I hope this helps resolve your query.

Hi there,

I recently purchased the Xbox Wireless headset with the intention of using it for work and gaming on my laptop and phone. However, I returned it as I was not satisfied with the response given by the independent advisor and the device itself. The headset has a feature that turns on the Xbox console when it is turned on, which I found to be unnecessary. I believe that only the controller should have this feature. Unfortunately, the solution provided by you will not fix the issue, and I do not want to pair and unpair the headset every day. The only solution that would work for me is to give users the option to disable this feature.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi Andre ! You can't do this. Personnaly, i use two controller. One on Xbox Wireless and the second one on PC with cable. When i want to switch to recharge the battery of the first, I connect directly the controller on the PC via the cable which limits
interference with the Xbox. You mention "sync to another thing", what kind of thing ?

Hi,

You could always plug out or turn off the console via the plug if you do not intend to use it.

Hope it helps

Hey there Andre MR,

Thank you for reaching out to us on the forums, Unfortunately this is not going to be possible, If you have already synced the controller it will basically be set to turn on the device the next time the controller is turned on. One thing that I can suggest
would be to simply connect the controller to the console via USB cable before you turn on the controller so that it is manually synced through the cable.

I hope this helps.
