    Audio over USB on Xbox Series X


    Just got the xbox series x, and was under the impression that it supports audio over usb. I tried connecting the razer nari ultimate (for PC) to the xbox through USB, but it doesn't work. Am i missing something, or waiting on a firmware update from xbox
    or razer?

    :)

    Will XBox Series X support external DAC/Amp hardware via USB?

    There are multiple articles stating audio compatibility via USB. If optical is necessary, there are various HDMI to optical devices available which you may need to add.

    https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/09/02/designed-for-xbox-new-look-continuous-compatibility/

    "Some gaming headsets that utilize an optical cable may require a firmware update to support game and chat audio over USB on Xbox Series X. Soundbars and headsets that do not receive updates may be connected
    directly to your televisions optical port."

    If it is not an Xbox specific model, which also may work with PC, it wont work.

    Xbox Series S/X audio over USB

    Hello!

    My name is Dérek, I'm an independent platform consultant and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help you.

    FabrykaInformatyki, I'm sorry about the situation. But unfortunately I have no way to confirm this information for you, friend.

    Only a few devices are really compatible with Xbox systems, not all USB devices have this technology.

    I remain at your disposal if you have any further questions.

    Xbox Series S/X audio over USB

    GooD Tips: The headset USB kit can be connected to the TV,
    most new TVs support this function, but the microphone does not work :(

    So it's a half and half approach...

    Xbox Series S/X audio over USB

    Microsoft is a huge corporation, one audio driver prepared for Windows (and signed) would probably handle a million headsets.

    There is also no list of compatible kits...

    My setup is claimed to be Xbox compatible - however it doesn't work with Xbox (USB not work, audio jack has no port).
