    Why does my Turtle Beach Stealth 500 only have audio coming out of the right headphone

    Hello, my name is Tadeu, I am an Independent Consultant and a member of the Microsoft Xbox community, just like you.

    I apologize for the issue you are experiencing.

    I am here to help.

    I hope everything is going well and thank you for contacting me.

    Sorry to hear about the issue with your Turtle Beach headset. Let's work through this together.

    First, make sure your headset microphone is not muted. Go to Sound Settings > Microphone > Input Volume, set the volume to 100, and test by speaking or lightly tapping the headset microphone to see if the microphone meter registers activity.

    After that, check your microphone privacy settings in Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone. Make sure the Xbox app and your gaming apps have microphone access enabled.

    Please let me know if this helps, if you need further assistance, or if the issue persists.

    Please note that this is a public forum only. I will respond as soon as possible, and apologize in advance for any delay in responding. I am just a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others. I am not a Microsoft employee.

    Best regards Tadeu

    SERIOUSLY?! Not a single wireless headset for xbox one??

    There has been a fully wireless headset out for a month, the Turtle Beach Stealth 500X, they are expensive but if it's fully wireless you're after

    if i buy the wireless xbox 360 headset, can i hear the game sound/ingame audio in the headset?

    I have the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 headphones, the connect wirelessly to the Xbox direct. I can hear both ingame audio, sounds and i can also hear chats from other team members as well as chat myself!

    Where was the wireless headset?

    it does suck I know...at the moment the only option to get true surround sound out of the Xbox one is the buy the Turtle Beach Stealth 500x or use the Turtle Beach XP500 from the 360.
