    controller and wireless headset will not connect to first quadrant

    hey guys/gals

    my controller and headset will not connect to the first quadrant, however they will both connect to the second quadrant. i have tried re-syncing them a buncha times and no luck what so ever. now your probably asking your self what does it matter? lol well
    it just bugs me i guess i do not know why. i just started using this controller because for some reason my kinect microphone or my headset mic would not work with my other controller but after doing a bunch of reading i guess the controller already thinks
    it has a mic plugged in or something and cancels out the kinect mic and the headset mic....so anywho now that i am not going to be using that controller that doesnt work with my mic's i am now using the second controller and it works perfect weather im using
    the kinect mic or my headset mic but i want to move it to the 1st quadrant on my xbox but like i said for some reason it will not let met.

    any ideas folks? thanks in advance fellas!

    Headset microphone not recognized.. help?

    no I’ve done that, but I have a potential fix this problem, I believe it's something to do with the Xbox Kinect speech commands, when I login using "Xbox sign in" and then start a party this way it doesn't seem to switch from Kinect mic to headset, but when
    I restart my Xbox, login using just the controller, create/join then obviously switch on party chat, it seems to detect my headset and work fine.

    Hello LAPIII,

    Of course you can, to disable the Kinect microphone go to:

    # Settings

    # Select Kinect

    # Uncheck 'Use Kinect microphone for chat.'

    Voice commands will also work with the "Kinect microphone being off".

    Day one update - Add the blueray option

    Xbox One comes with Kinect it can be used as a mic. If you don't want to use Kinect as a mic then buy a headset. I have no problem using Kinect as a mic.

    BF4 Mic Question

    I havent used the headset yet. Is it just conencting it to the bottom of the controller?

    I've turned Kinect off as the mic, any other settings need to change to use headset?

    should be able to use Kinect and a headset at the same time

    You could always get the headset adapter which will allow you to use your headset mic with the Xbox one controller which would eliminate the need to use the kinect mic.

    Microsoft really screwed up, Again

    Could you not just use your current headset/headphones for audio and the Kinect as a mic !?
