Headset won't always connect

Loopy NapSac · Mar 25, 2014

Ever since getting the Xbox One on launch day I have been having a problem with the mic. Typically, it will not register that it is connected. I can turn the volume all the way up and i will still hear the beeps. The mute mic button will still light up and
turn off. The problem is that I can't talk and I hear my friends through the speakers of my tv. I then have to unplug the mic and plug it back in several times. sometimes I even have to reboot my console. It's extremely annoying. Does anyone else experience
this? I really don't want to go out and buy a new headset.

Xbox One Headset Won't Plug In

My controller and headset I got brand new that came with my Xbox One won't connect. What I mean is that the plug for the headset won't plug in to the controller to physically connect. I tried for about an hour before giving up. So my question is what can
I do to resolve this?

Signing in again with the controller will typically rectify this.

Press the Home button, select your profile pic in the upper left and press A, then press A on "Choose this person" and often the mic will suddenly start registering that it is actually you talking and your party will hear you.

"This just says firmware update, which I can;t select"

Do you mean it is up to date with Version 4.8.1923.0 and it reports no update found or is it greyed out and you can't select it at all?

This link, Update wireless controller will guide you through the steps if an update is required.

I'm not extremely familiar with these so looked up a little info. Apparently on the left ear cup there should be a switch to switch it to xbox mode. Maybe that switch isn't set right?

Usually when I have a similar problem to yours, I would have to unplug and replug into the controller. Have you tried that to see if that would resolve the issue?

Thanks - it shows the last update, but you can't select that box, nor the one below it, which say the headset is not assigned. Seems odd?
