Unable to Connect Xbox Wireless Controller to PC via Bluetooth

the console does not even have any bluetooth hardware internally, the controllers do as they can connect via bluetooth to pc and wifi to the console.

the reason you see the console under devices on pc is due to it being on the same network.

the controller can be paired via bluetooth on pc but with limitations.

audio passthrough on the controller will not work via bluetooth

wired connection supports audio passthrough

wireless connection with a microsoft wireless adapter for controller with support audio passthrough.

Hi Arman,

Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums with this issue. When it comes to the BT capability of the Xbox One wireless controller, it is not supported for all devices. Bluetooth is supported on PCs, tablets, laptops, and Samsung Gear VR. If your
device is unable to recognize the controller via Bluetooth connection, then it may be incompatible for pairing.

Connect and troubleshoot Bluetooth on your Xbox One Wireless Controller


I hope this information helps out!

Is it possible to use the headphones via 3.5 mm jack connected to XBOX controller when the controller is connected to PC via bluetooth?

Hi,

I'm afraid not, it's a limitation of using Bluetooth to connect the controller to a PC:

Take from the
official support link

Things to keep in mind:

·
For best performance, update your controller.

·
Bluetooth is supported on PCs, tablets, and laptops. It is not supported on mobile devices.

·
Bluetooth doesn’t support attachments such as headsets, chatpads or the Xbox Stereo Adapter.

·
We recommend connecting only one controller at a time using Bluetooth.

Yes,

Under Human Interface Devices, as Xbox One Wireless Controller. This is when connected with the Microsoft wireless USB dongle.

I’ve also seen the controller under game controllers when initially connected via Bluetooth. But I abandoned using it via Bluetooth with my windows 10 pc. Only wireless adapter now.

Is this an Xbox One controller, or an Xbox 360 controller? If it's an Xbox One controller, are you connecting wirelessly to the PC via Bluetooth, or with the Xbox Wireless Adapter?
