    Controller plug-in headset no longer working after update


    I have a Turtle Beach Recon 70 plug-in headset. Only a month old. Worked fine until after yesterdays update (Oct 25th). Plugged headset into other controllers and works fine in others so issue is either Xbox One console update or the controller. Both have updated software.

    Have done a full factory reset on my Xbox after trying everything else I could find. Still doesn't work.

    Has anyone else had this issue? And if so, have you solved? I've raised with Xbox and they have escalated but couldn't give me an answer and was not a known issue. Just don't want my relatively new $80 headset to be cactus due to an update.

    Cheers

    :)

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    Press and hold your console's power button until the console turns off, remove the power cord for a few minutes.

    On your controller press and hold the Xbox button until the console turns off and remove the batteries for a few minutes.

    After a few minutes plug the power cord into your console again, put the batteries in your controller, turn on the console, plug your headset into the controller and try again.

    If that doesn't work, open Skype and in settings see if any sound is detected in the audio test.

    I think the problem may be in your controller, probably the controller jack is defective. You can order a replacement if you purchased the controller within 90 days.

    Hi Samy

    I did already try those before I did a full factory reset on my console. However I did just try again and still no luck. And no no sound using Skype either.

    Thanks for trying though.

    Cheers

    New headset with adaptor mic not working

    If your Xbox one Controller doesn't work or gets disconnected after you plug in your Stereo Headset Adapter, unplug your adapter,
    and then update your controller without the adapter. After the controller is updated, insert your Stereo Headset Adapter back into the controller.

    Did i make the right choice when buying a new console?

    to answer the issue with chat and your new and/or old headset.

    1.plug your headset into the controller

    2.go to settings and select your controller

    3.select update, [it may say there are no updates but go ahead click update]

    4.after the update your chat should work with the connected headset
