    Elite Controller 3.5mm Audio Jack doesn't work straight away


    Recently picked up an Elite controller, and I absolutely love it. Only problem I have with it though, is that when I plug a regular set of headphones into the 3.5mm jack, it registers them in the quick menu, but there's no audio. To get them to work, I literally
    need to unplug and plug them back in up to 20 times before sound starts coming through. This is for every set of head/earphones I try, so it isn't that.

    In the end, it eventually works though, so I suppose this isn't really a help request. More just highlighting the issue to see if I'm the only one experiencing it.

    :)

    ChatPad stopped working on Elite controller after update; never worked on regular controller

    I just got my ChatPad in the mail and it worked fine with my Elite controller, but connecting it to my regular controller (with 3.5mm jack) resulted in the orange LED flashing. I updated both controllers, because that's what the support articles say to do,
    and now the ChatPad won't work with the Elite controller either. Audio passthrough also doesn't work.

  3. Will Razer Kraken pro work on my Xbox One?

    I'm buying the Razer Kraken Pro. But will it work without the Audio adaptor? DOES IT EVEN WORK ON XBOX ONE?? Can I use it just by plugging the 3.5mm Jack?

    ** My controller does have the 3.5mm audio jack.

    How to use a USB Headset?

    the xbox one doesnt work with usb headsets yet only specially licensed ones like the turtlebeach Stealth 500x or the Elite 800X work with USB on the transmitter plus optical out.

    you might want to check for headsets that use a single 3.5mm jack as a connection like the razer kraken or Turtlebeach X0 One/Four/Sevens and other ones that either come with a propietary Stereo Chat adapter or IF you have one of the new controllers with
    the 3.5mm Jack built in just a straight pluug in then. i am sure there are also lots of adapters that combine 2 3.5 mm jack headsets to a 1 3.5mm jack. the choice is all yours.

    Cannot hear audio when headphones connected to my Xbox one controller

    if the headphones are still not working after adjusting the Audio and Chat settings, it could be that the 3.5mm jack in the controller is faulty.

    try testing with a different controller to see if it's the controller or the console that is the problem.

    Does anyone know how to connect speakers to the Xbox series s with only just a monitor and no pc?

    Hi,

    If you plug in headphones into the 3.5mm headphone jack do you hear audio?

    Are you sure the audio volume is turned up on your monitor settings?

    What 'speakers' did you buy?

    Most PC type speakers that connect via a 3.5mm audio jack should work. However, as the audio output port doesn't provide power, you'll need a set of powered speakers connected to the mains supply.

    Xbox design lab controller mic jack issue

    I don't have one as the headset just plugs straight in it's definitely the 3.5mm jack on the controller that is the issue
