Headset/Microphone

Is the microphone for this headset in-line (on the actual headset cable)? I know for other headsets this means the microphone won't work for the Xbox One.

Do you have a headset where this worked before? Or did you change headsets and since then the Microphone is muted?

There are two types of 3.5mm headphone jacks called OMTP and CTIA. On both standards, the microphone connector is switched with the ground connector. So if you have an OMTP headset, the controller is listening for a microphone on the ground connector, while
the microphone sends signals to the controller ground.

Hi Adromyster, my name is Oskayra and I will be happy to help you.

Check to see if the microphone on the headset is muted. Some headsets have a mute button on the headset itself or on the cable.

To check if the microphone on your headset is muted, follow these steps:

Open the "Settings" application.
Select "Sound & Display".
Select "Audio".
Select "Microphone".
Check the "Microphone Mute" button. If the button is on, the microphone is muted.

Check your console's audio settings. Make sure that the headset microphone is selected as the audio input device.

To check your console's audio settings, follow these steps:

Open the "Settings" application.
Select "Sound & Display".
Select "Audio".
Select "Input Devices".
Make sure that the headset microphone is selected as the input device.

You can also test the headset on another version of the console. If the microphone works on another version of the console, then the problem is related to your console version. In this case, it is possible that your console is not compatible with your headset.

I hope I have been able to help you and that your problem has been solved.

The microphone is muted, not the headset.

The headset and microphone works on another xbox and controller.

I have tried it on 2 controllers on the bone that is muted.

Striped microphone means you do not have a microphone connected. If you do not have a compatible Xbox headset. You will find out on the headset pack.
