Audio Output to Controllers When Playing Split-Screen

ThatCapnGeech · Dec 25, 2019

When playing split-screen, will the Xbox (or can the Xbox) output individual stereo audio to the corresponding controller during split-screen play? ie: Player 1's stereo sound goes to controller 1 and player 2's stereo sound goes to controller 2.

Or is there only one "master" stereo/surround audio track that gets pumped into both controllers?

Thanks.

I'd like to see split screen with capability's of dual video output. Better mic input for game controls. All paired with a live tournament scheduler.

Hey there EasyTarget197!

What you are experiencing is not game specific. Split screen audio for split screen games is not an available feature on the Xbox One. What this means is that all headsets playing a split screen game will receive combined audio.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can help with and we will be standing by.

An HDMI cable is required in this case. You'll need to use an HDMI cable to output the console audio/video to enable 2 player split-screen.

EDIT: So I'm not sure why it's not working. It only says an HDTV is needed.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, the audio feeds are separate. So if we have to controllers on split screen each with a stereo headset plugged in then they get their own audio. It's pretty cool actually.
