Microphone issue xbox series X when in game

My main problem is about recording game sounds on Xbox Series X not my microphone sound on pc.

I discovered one thing. If I plug any headphones in my Xbox Series X controller (with microphone or without it) it works much better in any of the games that gives the issue. What could be mean?

On Xbox Series X when some games like Doom Eternal, Crash Bandicoot 4, Psychonauts 2, Tales of Arise and Visage are launched (only Xbox Series X enhanced games and not all of them) any Xbox Series X controller incur in an input issue, with battery and with USB cable without battery: if any key or trigger is pressed rapidly it doesn't work, a sort of input lag. The issue persist in any dashboard menu, then if I turn off and turn on the controller again the problem disappear until I return to the game in background that caused the issue. Any Xbox One X controller works perfectly instead. Both Xbox Series X and Xbox Series X controller are update with the latest update. I noticed that when the issue start the usual buzzing noise of the controller change sound, a lower sound. If I plug any headphone with or without microphone in the Xbox Series X controller the commands are more responsive but the problem remains. I reported more and more times this problem to Microsoft since 3 months but still there isn't an update that resolve this issue with my great disappointment. I think this issue started since about 4 months after a system update, and I think the problem is the same of yours. Can you confirm this?

I had the exact same issue. Connected to the PC and phone, but not to my Xbox Series X. I had to return it to the store. The microphone light was ON even while I was in the store returning the headset.

Hi ralph fiore



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community



I do understand the urgency of you wanting to find other ways for this issue of yours in regards with your microphone and as well as we really do understand the capabilities that you had exerted efforts on this too. We are very glad to help you out to find some of the best possible options that we can provide.

We just want to set your proper expectations on this as well that there are some microphones or headsets that are compatible from one another especially using those on any Xbox Consoles, and from there once those devices are compatible there are less of a problem of that on facing some issues rather than those specific headsets and microphones that are not compatible from one another. Then those are the factors and possibilities that those would not work as for feature limitations too when using those devices,

And from what we had understood on your concern and as we had isolated that you have a specific microphone that you want to use for your Xbox Series X and you had not used this due to incompatibility of that device when connecting it to the console.

We do truly understand what you want to achieve, but one way for this for us to get ahold is trying to reach out on your SELLER where you had bought and purchased your microphone so that they can share to you and give some exact devices that they can share to you in using it within your Xbox Series X console. For more reference on seeing what devices are compatible, you can refer onto this link : Accessories compatible with Xbox Series X|S

In addition, you can try to refer from this thread on Microsoft Community wherein there is a specific detail on what is the needed requirement or compatible microphone/headset that is compatible with Xbox Series X console : Compatible mic for Xbox series X - Microsoft Community



Thank you for reaching out and sharing your issue. I hope all of this information's are helpful. We look forward on your response.
