Connecting headset to xbox one s controller

Hey there ,



Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is a question with connecting a headset to the Xbox Console.



I recommend checking out the following articles:

• Connecting a compatible headset to Xbox One
  
• Xbox One controller and headset compatibility
  

If the problem persists:

• Try updating the first controller. If that fails, try
  a different controller.
  
• Try using a Headset Adapter for compatibility issues.
  

Try this out and let us know the results.

My headset works on the Xbox one just not on backwards compatible games plus my Headset is completely wireless so i can't even try any of that. I think it's the Astro A50's like ArminatorX said about the base station being a USB
microphone. I'm just going to have to get another headset to use on backwards Compatible games one that actually connects to the controller like Astro A40's or something similar.

Hi,

I have xbox one s and bluetooth controller. I couldn't manage to pair my bluetooth headset (sony wh-1000xm3) with bluetooth controller. (Since BT devices can not be connected with CONSOLE via bluetooth, I try to connect BT headset with CONTROLLER).

How can I pair BT headset and controller?

Thanks for your reply.

This does not occur if I connect the same headset via wire/headphone jack to the controller.

It only occurs when connected wirelessly to the Xbox one S.

Please fix.

You'll ideally want a headset that connects with a 3.5mm audio jack, that way you can simply plug it into your controller.

Since the Xbox One X fully supports all existing accessories that the Xbox One and Xbox One S supports, you can see here about compatible headsets: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/connect-compatible-headset

The Xbox One console doesn't support Bluetooth. That headset won't work with the Xbox One in any way.

The new Xbox One controllers (the ones that come with the Xbox One S) have Bluetooth, but that's only used to connect the controller to a Windows 10 PC through Bluetooth.
