Hello Paul Harris3,

Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community.

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your mic monitoring settings resetting automatically. This issue may be related to the controller's firmware or settings.

Have you tried updating the controller's firmware to the latest version? You can also try resetting the controller to its default settings and see if that resolves the issue. If the issue persists, you may want to contact the manufacturer's customer support for further assistance.

Additionally, please note that Microsoft does not provide support for third-party controllers, so we may not be able to provide a solution for this specific issue.

Hope I helped.

Hi Paul H, my name is Jose, and I would be happy to help.

I apologize for the inconvenience you are experiencing with microphone monitoring. It seems to be a frustrating issue, and I understand your frustration.
Below, I provide some suggestions that might help you resolve the problem:

Firmware and Software Updates:

Ensure that both your controller (Gamesir G7 SE) and your headphones (SteelSeries) are updated with the latest firmware. Also, check if there are any available updates for your Xbox console.

Xbox Settings:

Revisit the audio settings on your Xbox. Sometimes, microphone monitoring options may be in less obvious locations. Look for specific settings related to your audio input device.

Technical Support:

Reach out to the technical support of the manufacturer of your controller and headphones. It might be a known issue with a solution or a pending update.

Forums and Communities:

Search online forums or Xbox user communities. Often, other users may have experienced similar problems and shared helpful solutions or tips.

Replacement or Return:

If all else fails, consider the possibility of replacing faulty devices or returning them if they are still within the warranty period.

I hope that one of these suggestions proves useful, and you can resolve the issue. Good luck!

If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help.

Best regards,

Hi there,

Being able to hear yourself speak or voice feedback is also known as mic monitoring and depends on what headset you have and how it's plugged into the controller whether or not it is available.

Can you tell us what model you have and how it plugs into the controller? Does it plug in to the 3.5mm port or does it come with a headset adapter?

Headsets that plug into the 3.5 mm port will add an "Audio" option found under the System tab of the Xbox Guide. It should be right below the Settings option. There you can turn the mic on or off, control the volume and chat mixer, and manage mic monitoring
which is controlled with a slider.

Other headsets with adapter's or one's that utilize an app will need to have mic monitoring turned on from those settings if they have them available.

Double tap the home button go to settings mic settings and reduce mic monitoring. This will stop the high pitch noise
