Audio Jack Not Working

I doubt getting an answer for my hi-fi headphone - attachable mic - microsoft adapter problem as posted above. It probably would not work anyway. Maybe a compromise solution could be: PC headset with two 3.5mm jacks (audio + mic). The audio jack to the DAC,
mic jack to the adapter.

This might be the only way to get chat audio to the headset while maintaining superior game audio from the DAC. Check out the forthcoming Audio Technica ATH ADG1 PC headset.

Hi! I'm Rostom, an Independent Advisor. I will be glad to help you here.

Just to confirm, are you referring to the Xbox wireless adapter on your PC?

If so, please remove the wireless adapater first. Then search on Start "Device Manager" and open it. Plug in your wireless adapater and it should update the list on the Device manager. Uninstall the newly added driver. Once uninstalled, restart your PC then check if the wireless adapter will start to work when plugged in.

No. Only for audio. The new microphone jack is difference. The companies are supposed to be working on adapters.

You can't get sound through a VGA cable, that's definitely right. I'm not sure which 3.5mm audio jack you're talking about, but if you can connect the red and white cables from the AV cable to a 3.5mm audio jack and connect that to an audio INPUT on your
monitor, that should work for sound. You would of course need to make sure that it's an audio input on your monitor (not a headphone out jack) and that you have either speakers in your monitor or headphones to use.

Hi,

If you plug in headphones into the 3.5mm headphone jack do you hear audio?

Are you sure the audio volume is turned up on your monitor settings?

What 'speakers' did you buy?

Most PC type speakers that connect via a 3.5mm audio jack should work. However, as the audio output port doesn't provide power, you'll need a set of powered speakers connected to the mains supply.
