Discord messed up xbox audio

Danyon Ebert · Feb 17, 2023

My friend just booted up discord on his Xbox for the first time and it messed up the audio for his entire Xbox. He cant hear anything anywhere except me in the discord call. Even if he is not in the discord call all of his audio is still mute. We've tried restarting a couple of times and unbinking his discord but to no avail. Any solutions?

I see, just to confirm. Are you using an stable OS for your console. Right?

If yes, please try factory resetting the console but keeping games and apps:
Go to settings > system > console info > reset and then select keep my games and apps

If maybe that doesn't work and in case you didn't try it, could be nice perform an offline update for your console. In that way Xbox system will be installed/updated from scratch.

For this you need a USB and PC to format it and transfer files provided in the link below (with steps):

Just tried all that, it didn't work. I also tried unlinking the discord account on my xbox with the same results.

May I know if you tried power cycling your console, usually that helps to fix those issues:

1. Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

2. Unplug the console's power cable from the console and from the power outlet. Wait 5 minutes.

Important: Be sure to wait at least 5 minutes. This step resets the power supply.

3. Plug the console power cable back in.

4. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

After that, try to remove and re-add your profile on the console.

In case you need it, here's how to remove and re-add:

Also disconnect your router from power for about 3 minutes. Then connect it again an when everything is working, try again

If you already tried that, tell me what else did you do. In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

Honestly the best option here for separating the audio would be Discord (or another 3rd party chat program) and I'm quite surprised that you say the audio on there isn't as good as Xbox because from my experience audio in Discord is much better. You may
want to check your settings in Discord and make sure it's all good there.
