Chat moving from headset to laptop when streaming

Any update on this? I had the same problem, so I switched to another PC that was still working correctly, meaning I could see my xbox one streamed through windows 10, but continue to use the controller with the headset as usual.

And then after several weeks, just like with my 1st PC, for some reason the party chat now transitions away from my controller headset to my PC when I start streaming. If I stop streaming, the controller headset starts working again. So my choice is to
either participate in party chat OR see the screen, but not both.

This makes streaming useless for any multiplayer activity involving party chat.

are you streaming direct from the console or using OBS and with what you have already stated then i am guessing you have the option set to "broadcast party chat"? and you are 100% that the other members of the party are accepting the notification about their
chat being included on your stream?

also under your party options when you are streaming does it say that your party is being broadcast when you press the xbox guide button on your controller?

also have you tried changing the output setting for the party chat from headset to tv speakers or to both and see if that enables it to come through?

Hi,

There are several reasons why you are experiencing issues with Streaming on Xbox Live while using the Party Chat. It may be due to a possible connection error or the environment where your device is located.

To better assist you with your concern, please clarify the following information:

• On which device are you streaming while using the Party Chat?
• Does the issue occur when you are streaming without the Party Chat enabled?
• How do you connect your device to the network?
• How many devices are connected to your network hardware?

I am streaming on my laptop while using the chat.

No it does not occur when I'm not using party chat.

With wifi on a 5ghz 802.11ac network.(don't have access to ethernet)

Around 7 devices are connected to the hardware, but my laptop is the only device on the 5ghz band.

I mainly use a headset when I'm in party chat, or when streaming. However, there are some games that sound great with a headset, like you mentioned. I noticed Blair Witch recommended using a headset, to get the best experience out of it. There must be
other games that recommend the same, too.

I don't know if this is the right thread to put this in but it seems relatable. The xbox app came with Win 10 and in it is a Xbox One Stream feature. I had an idea to record the in game chat of the game while playing. I started streaming and plugged in a
headset but to my dismay the headset did not relay any voice. It appeared connected on the television/game and the mute button lit up but no voice would play through the mic. I tried plugging in the headset before running the stream but that just caused the
stream to reveal the error message: "We couldn't stream from your console. Try again later.". It is kinda hard to record in game chat when you cannot talk while streaming. I am not sure if this is a glitch or a known programmed safeguard. If anyone has any
info that could help please let me know.

P.S. The recording application and the external mic used to record my audio were not in use when the above events occurred.
