Headset Connected to Controller Connected to PC not playing audio

Hi Diabelnyy,

Unfortunately it's not possible to connect your headset via Bluetooth, unless your headset or headphones have built in Bluetooth. If the headset's are Bluetooth capable, then you would need to set them up via your PC's Bluetooth settings, but I'm not sure
if you can have multiple devices connected via Bluetooth at the same time.

You would need to directly connect the headset to your PC via the 3.5 mm audio port. Connecting into the controller will not work unless you are playing on an Xbox One console.

The Xbox wireless controller adapter for PC will not work in trying to connect a headset via Bluetooth.

The only way to connect the headset to the Xbox One, is with the audio cable that is supplied with it. Connect the cable to the headset then the controller 3.5 mm jack socket. If your controller does not have the jack socket, then you will need the Microsoft
headset audio adapter, which you connect to the controller, then connect the headset to the adapter.

the controller supports bluetooth connection to pc and mobile devices but does not support audio over bluetooth in any way shape or form (does support audio passthrough when wired to pc)

the headset should work though when the controller is wirelessly connected to the xbox one.

have you resynced the controller to the xbox one.

Hi AdamFPVY

Looks like the headset is designed for PC gaming and not Xbox. Consoles only support the 3.5mm connection (plugs directly into the controller) or the consoles proprietary wireless connection. Some headsets have a base station that uses USB to power it, but
no audio is available through USB on the console.

Hope that helps.

Some extra information may be needed for people to decide where the issue lay:

- What headset is it? How is it connected: Wired directly into the Xbox, wireless or wired into the controller (if controller, do you use an Audio Adapter)

- What Xbox is it?

- Have there been any console updates, controller updates etc?

- If you have a PC, you could try connecting the headset to that to see if there's any headset updaes
