    Headset mic not working after latest controller update


    Hey, I updated both my controllers a few days back, and since then, the mic on my headset stopped working. I can hear other players, and the mute and volume adjust works. I've tried a new headset, power cycling and rebooting my X1, removing and adding my
    profile, and troubleshooting the controllers. Nothing works so far. Any help appreciated.

    :)

    Is anyone having trouble with the headset, after the latest update my headset seems to no longer work. I've tried to unplug it from the controller, reset my controller and reset my Xbox but still not working.

    Have you recently update your controller by any chance? My headset has just stopped working after installing the latest software.

    Headset mic not working after latest controller update

    i have also just got this problem as some of my friends. tho we have not recently updated anything. was working fine, not been dropped or broken in any way, working fine and then just stops picking up my voice. can still hear others and the mute etc all
    still works. there is no clear reason why this should have happened. its clearly a problem on microsofts side. Come on Microsoft! Sort it out!!!

    Update: my friend loaned me the Elite headset that came with his X1, it works fine. The mics on both of his regular X1 headsets and both of mine do not work, only the headset with the silver ring around the earpiece.

    X Box One Controller is muted

    Our xbox one controllers stopped working with the stereo headset (just the mic) all simultaneously.

    We tried plugging it into the 3.5 mm jack. None of my 3 controllers worked after having worked fine for months. All updated to latest firmware.

    I tested the headset on my iphone and the mic was fine there- I could record voice memos with no problems

    went to GameStop and spent $50 for the stereo headset adapter, and that allowed the mic to work again for another 30 days.



    Now the mic is stuck on mute again, the headset adapter’s slashmark icon stays lit

    When you got the latest update did you update your controller as there was an update for them also remember to fit your mic into headset something I forgot to do
