  1. Controller not working when I connected my Turtle Beach Headset


    Hi All

    I'm having a specific issue with my Xbox One controller and my XOFour Turtle Beach headset.

    I am part of the Xbox One Update Preview Program, but the link that takes me to the correct part of the site was broken or malfunctioning.

    The Details

    - Sometimes when I plug my headset into my controller, the controller stops functioning. Meaning i cannot use it to operate the console in any way.

    - The only way I can get it to work again is by performing a soft reset on my console. (manually touching the power button on the console until it shuts down)

    - [FYI] This has not happened the entire time I've owned the console (since launch) until I started playing Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

    - [FYI] The controller is powered via Play & Charge

    - [FYI] The controller stays powered on while not functioning.

    - [FYI] The guide button on the controller does not pulse, blink, or turn off - It remains lit

    - [FYI] I leave the adapter for the Turtle Beach plugged in permanently and just plug in the headphone jack when i want to use it.

    - [FYI] If I turn the controller off by removing the battery then re-inserting it, I can turn the controller back on by using the guide button. In other words the controller can control itself, just not the console.

    Things I've Tried



    - Tried it on other games but no luck. Mainly, I believe, because the problem has spotty repeatability except with COD:AW, with which the problem is frequent.

    - Tried disconnecting and reconnecting of the headset AND its adapter.

    - Tried removing the battery from the controller for 30 secs then re-inserting it. It still will not function with the console.

    - Tried performing a re-sync between the console and the controller.

    :)

  3. No sound on headset or mic for XO Three Gaming Headset Wired connected to a wireless controller

    Purchased a new Ear Force XO Three Gaming Headset(Turtle Beach) and a wireless controller. Connected the headset to the wireless controller and attempted setup on X Box One Console. However, we have no sound on headset and mic is not working.

    Any ideas?

    Hello, have you tried to update the firmware on the controller while the headset is connected? Go to settings. Then devices & accessories and select the xbox one controller that you are using. Ensure the head set is connected to the controller. Plug your
    controller into your xbox one. Once the controller is plugged in you should be able to update firmware. Ensure the controller is plugged until the update completes.

  5. What type of batteries are in the controller?

    -Sometimes the mah and volts aren't strong enough to run the controller and stereo adapter together.

  6. Updating the controller did NOT work. And the type of batteries i used is the Charge and Play kit. Like i said in the original post. This entire situation is extremely frustrating and i making me regret even buying an XB1. I cant be the only person with
    this problem out there but according to google, I am. Controller not working when I connected my Turtle Beach Headset :mad:

    Headset options?

    The DSS should work with any headset for the 360, just plug it in as you would a turtle beach, you have the in-line controller from the headset plug into the green connector then plug the 3.5 jack into the DSS, and for xbox chat you would just connect the
    3.5 to 2.5 jack from the in-line headset control to the xbox pad.

    I haven't actually seen the setup with other headsets but it should work the same, turtle beach says you can use any headset with the DSS.

    thanks for letting us know . this is a shame . i've tried to connect a turtle beach headset in as well via the dongle and it doesn't work. i did get an adapter for my controller to plug in my headset into and that's all i could do .

    [Suggestion]Headset

    As far as I know there are no completely wireless headset for the Xbox One . The Headset coming out by Turtle Beach and Polk Audio still use a wire to the controller . You will need a adaptor to use even a wired headset and there is no official word on when
    this will be available. I'm using Turtle Beach XP500 and they work great . I had to splice Xbox One headset cable and a Turtle Beach cable (the 2.5mm plug end) together for chat , the cable is so light you almost don't feel it's presence. What ever Headset
    you go with make sure it has a optical in connection for your sound .
