    Can't find microphone

    Check if your controller needs an update in the settings area and see if you still have a problem.

    We can't find a microphone for these people

    If you use a headset with a 3.5 mm plug and 3 rings on the connector, know that there are two standards for those headset connectors called "OMTP" and "CTIA".

    If you have 3 headsets with a OMTP setup, then the headset is "talking" to the ground pin of the controller, and the controller is "listening" for the microphone on the ground-pin of the headset.

    You need to get a CTIA to OMTP adapter, which simply reverses these two contacts. You can get these adapters online or in most cellphone stores.

    "We can't find your microphone"

    What type of headset is it ? Are you sure it's compatible with the Xbox one? Have you checked to make sure it doesn't need any additional firmware or anything downloaded directly from the manufacturers site ? My current headset needed an entire app downloaded
    onto my PC before it would work properly

    Good afternoon Skorpio11x

    Here are a couple links to the support page that can help trouble shoot the issue possibly.

    I know that me personally I was trying to use headphones that had chat capability but I never could get it to work correctly (like the issues you are having) until I bought a Stereo headset Adaptor. If you have not purchase one of these you might try that

    I hope the issue gets resolved, I know it is no fun not being able to participate in the chat.

    If this is helpful please mark my reply as such and thank you!
