    Fortnite - Xbox Live Party and Fortnite Game Chat not working.


    When I updated fortnite the first time this year (2021) for Chapter 2 Season 6 I would get the message from fortnite “You are in a console only channel and others may not be able to hear you.” Somehow I managed to fix it. Im not sure how. Sadly, it started back up. My mic was working perfectly fine, not even a week ago, and then when I went to go adjust my audio settings to hear my friends better in-game, it stopped working. It gives me that message “You are in a console only channel and others may not be able to hear you” even when Im not in an Xbox Party.
    Ive already a variety of things:

    -Shutting down and rebooting the Xbox One console

    -Uninstalled and reinstalled Fortnite (Twice)

    -Opening fortnite while in and out of an Xbox Live Party

    -Turned off my headset microphone

    -Tried pressing “X” on the controller as Fortnite suggested while in the “Voice Chat tab” under “Social” but that did nothing

    -Double checking my Voice chat preferences on Fortnite (all of which are allowed or on)

    -Double checking my Communication settings on the Xbox (all of which are also allowed or everyone)

    -Unplugging my headset from my controller and plugging it back in (while the Xbox is On and Off)

    -Quitting and reopening the Fortnite app

    I might have tried one or two more things, but at the moment I cannot remember them. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Thanks,



    :)

    FIX NEEDED. Game chat is not working in fortnite. xbox part chat works fine

    Join an Xbox party chat, go to options and switch to game chat. You can then leave the Xbox party and the fortnite party chat should work again

    cloud gaming fortnite mic problem

    He’s saying he is trying to “game” chat through fortnite and not “party” chat through Xbox, probably because his friends use a different console than Xbox. I have the same issue. Only on fortnite can I not use game chat with cloud gaming. It’s beta. The perfect excuse to not work. Lol

    Xbox one - Steel series Arctis 5 not working in fortnite

    hi there,

    sometimes on fortnte the audio gliches out and what you need to do is before you go on fortnite start an xbox party up then load in to fortnite then go to your friends list then click Y then scroll down to audio channel then go xbox party chat to game xbox
    party chat to game and that usually fixes it

    Why has my Xbox Wireless Headset stopped working on Fotnight Party chat?

    Thank you for your reply.

    No, I don't use discord at all.

    Today I have also tried resetting my xbox settings and uninstalling then reinstalling fortnite.

    There seems to be an issue with my Wireless headphones - only when playing fortnite.

    The headphones work playing other games on the xbox, and fortnite party chat will work if I plug in wired headphones.
