Audio Stops working when switching apps

Glingy 0 · Nov 1, 2014

being able to swing from youtube to Netflix to games and so on is great...... but often the Audio stops working when you go back to a previous app (i assume because the xbox has forgotten which app is the Current PRIMARY source of entertainment)

so its great having things switch quickly but when the xbox ones shitsitself and you have to turn it off and back on again thats not helpful or fun

Xbox one bluRay audio problems. Help needed.

I've been having issues with my audio when playing blu ray's on the xbox one. It doesn't matter what disc I use or what audio source. No audio will play through my headset directly from the controller, or hooked up to my 4k tv. This all started several months ago when it would freeze and the audio will go out of sync with the picture. Netflix, vudu, and games are not affected. My asus montiors also supports hdmi sound and they dont work when the blu ray movie plays.
I just spent an hour with Xbox support and nothing they suggest had any effect on the issue. My xbox, unfortunately, is out of warranty.

Things i've tried:
Uninstalling and reinstalling the blu ray app.
switching the audio settings.
installing the app on both my internal and external.
using fiber optic sound cable through my mix amp.

The behavior is the same.

Could this be an issue with the blu ray player, a combination between the App and the device, or the App just being the worst app ever created on this planet?

Problem with an otherwise functional microphone chat in world of tanks

When you turn off the remote control functions including audio chat microphone. After connecting the wireless controller immediately stops working chat microphone and audio functions only. when you disconnect the remote control, microphone chat works again.

Thank you for the advice

Next time that happens try pressing the Guide button to go home and then open the app again. See if that helps.

Hello,

try to switch your Audio Settings--> DTS to Dolby Digital or something else (Dolby Atmos)

I have the same Problem, when i try to open a App, Youtube or Netflix the App close automatically

after few seconds. When I switch the audio settings it works, i think the error has something to do with the latest (Beta) preview update

The tv has audio output and the headset is connects. the audio comes through the headset just fine when it is on a regular television channel, as soon as I switch to HDMI the audio stops though, despite the fact that nothing has changed between the headset-tv
connection. It's as if when I switch the television to HDMI, the output jacks just cease to function

Thanks Koop,

Yeah, that's what is happening, if the option was there to output specifically stereo just for TV it would then allow for the uncompressed or Dolby/DTS for the other apps and gaming.

I think audio-wise when snapping other apps it would keep the main app's setting, i.e. when you have 50hz TV and snap Netflix it stays at 50hz rather than switching to 60hz, so potentially it could keep the stereo audio too.

Ideally it would be good for the xb1 to just switch on the fly and when snapping just keep the main apps audio format.

It stops when I don’t even use my headset though, like I’ll be listening to music on spotify, and the sound stops half way through a song at times. I have 2 different tvs, so I tried it on my other tv, and realized tv wasn’t an issue either. Like I have
no idea what to do. Lol
