  2. Chat Headset Microphone Does Not Work

    I would suggest trying a party test...but with the controller plugged in via usb to rule out any wireless issues.

    Looks like you've covered everything else.

    FYI: There are a lot of reports after the NXOE update so IF going wired doesn't fix it.

    and IF you have all games and apps on an external HD

    Id try doing a factory reset.

    If that doesn't work, i would contact official support and follow their steps.

    Gaming headset, xbox controller, pc, mic volume low

    try to use the microphone with a mobile phone to verify what is the microphone, if it works it may be the control input that does not work

    no microphone on child account

    Some additional information:

    - this is not a hardware problem. The microphone works fine on the parents account

    - I created a new child account and gave it exactly the same permissions as the child account that does not work.

    The microphone works fine on the newly created child account.

    The party feedback showing that microphone works shows up for an instant when switching to the account that does not work.

    I tried resetting all family settings for the account that does not work, but that did not make a difference.

    Blue snowball

    Since the Blue Snowball is an USB microphone, it does NOT work with the Xbox One currently.

    Only microphones that plug into the analogue 3.5mm jack of the controller will work. Also make sure, that when you want to use a standard 3.5mm jack microphone, that you will need an adapter that puts the microphone and ground contact at the correct position
    with a CTIA adapter.

    Broken microphone

    The microphone does not work in any games nor does it work in party chats. The headset is the standard headset that comes with an xbox purchase.
