  1. Controller turns off a few minutes after I plug headset in


    I have tried 4 different controllers and every single time the controller powers off after I plug my headset into it. All 4 controllers work great as long as I don't plug my headset into it. Tried watching a movie today with headset so home theater didn't bother my wife's Zoom meetings all this morning. One of the most frustrating things I've ever been involved in. Right in the middle of the action and guy is flying into the AA and he's flying down the river to go blow up the bridge and... no sound. Controller is dead. Jesus! I turn the controller back on. He's blown up and the bridge and they're flying back. Smdh. Now they're talking about insubordination etc.... controller goes dead. What the heck. Turn controller back on... over and over again.

    Controller plug-in headset no longer working after update

    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.

    Stereo headset adapter no longer working - stuck on mute

    Hey everyone,

    I know this is a few years late, but from what I have read everywhere what worked for me has not been said yet when everything else did not work.After trying the resetting of the controller and Xbox, updating the controller, plugging the adapter in and out,
    and all those other things.

    What worked for me was plugging the headset I was trying to use into my controller, then letting it turn on the headset until sounds comes out. After it is on unplug the headset then plug in the adapter. The mute light should be off and it should work again
    until the controller is turned off. Once the controller turns off these steps have to repeated.

    Controller not working.

    Okay. Turn off your console by holding your console's power button until the console turns off, remove the console's power cord and leave it for a few minutes.

    Press and hold the Xbox button on your controller until it turns off, remove the batteries and leave it for a few minutes.

    After about 3 minutes, just plug the power cord into your console, put the batteries back in your controller, and try connecting the console with your controller and see if that solves the problem

    XBox Series X 2 Controllers help needed

    Got it. Let's start with the basics.

    Turn off both controllers and remove the batteries, leave for a few minutes.

    On your console, PRESS and HOLD your console's power button until it turns off, remove the power cord and leave it for a few minutes.

    After about 2 minutes, plug the power cord into your console and turn on the console with one of the controllers, then turn on the other and see if this behavior repeats.

    These commands will clear your system cache.

    Let me know if the problem persists.

    Im having the same problem. I updated my controller then, when I plugged my headset into my controller it shuts off. So then I took out the rechargeable batteries and hooked up the power cord to the controller. I then turned on my controller and plugged
    the headset into it and the controller still shut off right away. Ive also did a few power cycling with No success same with a few updates on the controller. Any Help?!?!?!?!?!?
