Headset issues on Xbox X

Returned it and bought a Hyper X cloud flight S for my PC, this solved the problem! Clearly this is a firmware issue with Infinite and this headset or something strange!

Hyper X is Way better, Comfier with far better quality sound, The Xbox headset sound is muddy in comparison.

Just an update in order to help other players that could experience the same issue...

1) If you start your xbox one, by controller or by the X lighter button, and then you launch Fortnite with the headset unplugged from your controller, then your headset will not works properly.

2) If you start your xbox one only by the X lighter button, then you plug the headset into the controller and then you start your controller with the X button, after starting Fortnite your headset will works properly.

It seems that controller and headset must be started together, after having started your xbox one, but before launching Fortnite.

I hope this can help.

Thanks again.

Hello
pvr999,

Below is the official link on troubleshooting that type of issue:

I don't believe it has anything to do with the 4K..

It might be an actual issue with that particular Xbox one X controller where the headset connects into the

3.5 mm jack. If possible, you might want to try another Xbox one X controller (if you have one or if you can borrow one) and

connect the headset to that one

to see if it works.. that'll tell you whether or not the issue is actually with the controller.. and since it's an Xbox one X, it'll

definitely still be under the 1 year manufacturer warranty for you to be able to replace the controller.

I hope that helped!

Same issue on Xbox series X with xbox wireless headset. DTS encoder works just fine, dolby lets my headset disconnect and reconnect continuously. It’s unusable. I don’t think the problem is with your receiver, try DTS and see what happens.

Hello x ChriSsy RFC x,

Unfortunately the Venom Headset XT is not compatible with the xbox one without an official xbox stereo headset adapter.

You can get a headset adapter at your nearest game store or right at this link

Good luck!
