Ghaige McDowell · Apr 29, 2023

So i am still struggling trying to fix the issue of my xbox mix chat mixer being grey and stuck on the far right, i have done all of the following "fixes" none of them working, such as updating my controller, reseting my entire audio settings, selecting an option for chat mixer plugging my mic in slowly, nothing works. Please help me figure out what else i can do...

Hi Ghaige!

It may be a headset issue. To further isolate it, please try to use a different headset or you could try a different controller instead.

Alternatively, try to perform a factory reset on your console.
Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.
Select Reset console.
On the Reset your console? Please choose “Reset and keep my games & apps”

I understand. But there's a possibility that it's an issue with that headset. I believe it's not a headset from Microsoft? If not, try to check its manual and find out how to update its firmware.

Ok ill try the system restart, but i don't see how that changes anything im using a headset that has a sticker on it stating it was designed for xbox, in the xbox isle in a walmart, with a pretty recently bought an red xbox controller.

ok. try this other method.

You can try re-associating your controller with your profile. To do this, follow the steps below:

Press the Xbox button to open the guide and go to Profile & system .

Select Add or switch and select your profile.

Also, to adjust the chat mixer settings, follow the steps below:

Press the Xbox button to open the guide and select Profile & system > Settings > General > Volume & audio output .

Select Additional options > Chat mixer and choose one of the options.

We look forward to hearing from you.

ok. try these other methods.

1. Check your controller settings: Make sure Headset Chat Mixer is not set to "off" in your audio settings.

2. Check your headset: Make sure your headset is properly connected to your controller and that the volume is turned up.

3. Check your Xbox Live account: If you are signed in to Xbox Live, make sure your account is not set to "child" or "teen" mode, as this may limit certain features.

4. Check your network connection: If your network connection is weak or unstable, this may cause issues with Headset Chat Mixer. Try resetting your router or modem, or connecting your Xbox directly to your modem with an Ethernet cable.
