    Headsets on Xbox.


    Why does the Xbox One not support any USB based headsets except for the specific Xbox One headsets that are WAY too expensive. Why can't I unplug my wireless USB dongle for my headset from my computer, plug it into my Xbox and use that for game/chat audio??
    Both my PC and Xbox utilize Windows 10 now, so whats the difference?

    I'm just curious and slightly annoyed by this. I would really like to enjoy 100% wireless surround sound without paying 300$. Come on Microsoft...

    :)

  3. Headsets not working

    Hi all, am having trouble with xbox headsets, have purchased two different ones the latest being the recon 50x. Only getting static through headset, nothing else. Headsets are working on pc and ps4 console but not on xbox 1 console. PS4 headsets work fine
    on xbox 1, just can't seem to get xbox headsets to work. Any ideas

    Audio passthrough on xbox one s controller windows 10

    Does the headset work when the controller is connected to the Xbox?

    In the Xbox Accessories app (on the PC), does your headset show up?

    What type of headset are you trying to use? Is it a chat headset for Xbox, a phone headset...?

    Xbox One Headset Interface Problems

    ZigzagLemonHaze,

    I can understand your frustration with all the bad luck you have been having. And, for the record, I am not part of the Microsoft staff nor an Xbox customer support employee. But, I can say that we have 2 Xbox Ones and 1 Xbox One S, and 2 of the

    Xbox One Stereo Headsets
    . And, both headsets work well, with and without the
    Stereo Headset Adapters
    , on all our Xboxes.

    Mic compatability - Ath-Adg1x

    On each headset case, it says what the headset is compatible with. You have to buy a Xbox headset that's compatible with Xbox.

    I cannot be heard in Xbox live party chat, but I can hear others and gameplay, adapter seems to be in working order.

    Hello Mimi!

    Below is a list of non-compatible headsets:

    Non-compatible headsets

    The following headsets are incompatible with the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter:

    • Mad Catz Tritton Warhead headset
    • Mad Catz Tritton Primer headset (Mad Catz offers an adapter for the Primer headset to convert the 2.5-mm audio jack to a 3.5-mm audio jack. Contact Mad Catz for support.)
    • The Xbox 360 Wireless Headset and Xbox 360 Wireless Bluetooth Headset
    • Headsets with this 2.5-mm connector will not work because of the connector format. This connector includes a long, cylindrical pin in the middle of the connecting side that does not fit into the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter.

    More info on using compatible headsets with the adapter.

    Xbox One S and Official Stereo Headset Adapter not recognized

    Hi Zathrus,

    We have two of the
    Xbox Stereo Headset
    with Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter, and both sets have worked well with no problems for sometime now. And I have used the
    adapter with non-Microsoft headset with no issues. So, given that you say your "3.5 mm cabled headset " works directly connected to the controller, then I regret to say it would seem that the fault lies with the adapter itself and may need to be replace.
