    My Xbox series x controller stopped responding unless plugged into the Xbox


    My Xbox series x controller stopped responding to any buttons being pushed unless it is plugged in to the Xbox. The controller cuts on and shows solid Xbox light on the controller but no response on the Xbox. Tried switching batteries and the problem was not solved. Tried to re-sync the controller by hitting the sync buttons and still nothing. Connected the controller via usb-c able and it works. Tried doing an update on the controller and still no response when using wirelessly.

    :)

    Issue with new Arctis 9x and xbox keyboard

    The keyboard itself plugs into my controller and the usb, I have plugged into the usb port on the front of my xbox series x. When using the keyboard, the keyboard works but the mic stops working.

    Hello BenEmergy,



    Greetings!



    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



    It appears that the Xbox controllers can't be connected wirelessly to your Xbox Console. Let us check and see on what we can do to help resolve your concern in a timely manner.

    We would like to ask few questions to help us isolate the issue further.

    1. With the three Xbox Controllers, are all these controllers are Xbox Wireless controllers or of different type?

    2. Are those controllers not connected wirelessly to Xbox console since the first time it was used to connect to your Xbox Console?

    For the meantime, here are the ways to connect your Xbox Controllers wirelessly:

    • Connect the Xbox Controllers wirelessly using Xbox app accessories.
    • Connect the Xbox Controllers using the pair button.
    For the complete steps, see the article through this link: Connect an Xbox Wireless Controller to your console | Xbox Support



    We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



    Sincerely,

    Hey guys I was having that problem with my series x controller and ended up buying a whole new on but then that had the same problem. I ended up PLUGGING THE CONTROLLER INTO THE XBOX and unplugging it and it's has stopped so far, I'll keep yall updated if anything changes, but that's just what worked for me:)
