I can hear through my headset, but no one can hear me.

The headset having the issue is the Xbox One default headset. I bought a new one from gamestop today thinking my headset was broken, but the new headset has the exact same problem. I can talk in party chat and game chat using my kinect, so privacy settings
aren't the issue. Also, if I turn the kinect off and only use the headset it still has the same issue. Both mics are clearly receiving power because the slash in the mute button will light up when I press it. Both mics are also in excellent condition. Please
help, I have to be unreasonably close to the kinect for it to pick my voice up at a comfortable volume. My back and neck are hurting from leaning forward.

Can hear everything fine through headset, but no one can hear me?

Hi PulsatingMoses,

Have you checked to ensure that your
controllers are up to date? Also, is your NAT type open or something else currently? Let's be sure to check out the

headset troubleshooting guide as well.

Thank you!

I can hear everything fine through my headphones (their afterglow lvl 3) but for some reason no one can hear me. I've tried everything from hard reset to changing NAT type. The microphone works on my phone but not the Xbox.

 

Hello,

Sorry to hear that you are having this issue(no pun intended), I have included an article that may help you, also if you could include your network settings, i.e. nat type, whether this is a home or university network, and any trouble shooting steps that
you have tried already. Just in case this article doesn't work, the additional information will prove useful.

I've tried everything the article you linked says to do. My NAT type is open and I use port forwarding. Is that what you're asking for?

 

The next thing I would try is attempt to use the headset on a controller that you know is able to use a headset, another option I would try is updating your controller by connecting it to the console for 10 minutes via the usb cable, third option is to pair
the controller again with the Xbox. Also you may go in to settings>kinect it will say use kinect for voice chat, try turning this off.

 

Hi LETHALxSAINTx,

If you start a party by yourself and watch your icon does the mic light up when you speak? Have you tried on a second controller?
