  1. Aux microphone doesn't work with Party chat.


    Hi, I've been completely unable to use The front Mic/Headset Aux jacks on my PC to use party chat in any way. I have an Astro A40 headset that works On Xbox connected to a controller, On many other Windows apps (Steam, Discord, Teamspeak, Skype, etc..) using
    the Aux jacks, and even a USB microphone via the astro mixamp pro.

    With the Xbox App, if I connect my headset to an Xbox One controller connected to my PC, party chat works. It also works when I use my headset via USB in party chat. However, using the standard front aux jacks does not work for the party chat. It even states
    "A microphone is not detected for this player." I don't know if it's an issue on my end or if you can't use it. I feel it's a massive oversight as many PC gamers use front Aux jacks for audio/mic, and it's rather inconvenient to have a controller wired to
    you when you're not using it. Help or otherwise a fix of this issue would be a big boost to the quality of the Xbox App.

    :)

    Windows 10 Xbox One Streaming microphone not detected?

    That generic support doesn't really apply here. The problem is with a PC microphone, not an Xbox One microphone. The Xbox App on PC detects the mic and it works if I start a party via the app, but it doesn't work in any capacity on the Xbox One for parties
    or game chat.

    Astro A50's not working in party chat or game chat on Backwards Compatible games

    Does the headset work on Xbox One Party chat (i.e. do you see a circle around your gamerpic in the party chat on Xbox One)?

    Are only Backwards compatible games affected? If so, it might be that the Astro A50 base station acts as a USB microphone, which doesn't work as Chat microphone on the Xbox 360.

    You might have to contact the Astro A50 support for information on how to use that headset on backwards compatible titles.

    Yeah it works on the Xbox One party chat but yeah that's what i was thinking i might just have to get a old Xbox One chat headset for it to work.

    Mic not working in the xbox app and in party chat while streaming

    What specifically doesn't work? The stream audio or the party audio?
    Was that not covered in the OPs post?

    "I'm unable to use the microphone on my Steelseries when coneected to my PC using a Remote Streaming session"

    "just not when joining a party during a stream."

    Seems to me that the OP is playing using the Remote Play function but the Microphone doesn't work when in a party chat whilst using the Remote Play. the Mic works fine when directly connected to the Xbox or used via the Xbox App

    G933 Artemis Spectrum Wirelessly on Xbox One

    Im sorry for your problem. I would like to recommend using the xbox app for party chat if that helps and if that doesn't work for you, i would suggest a usb to aux audio adapter. (Buy at your own risk) (Make sure your source is reliable and affordable.
    If this option is chosen.)
