    Microsoft Xbox Wireless Headset chat mixer only works when plugged in


    As the subject states - Microsoft Xbox Wireless Headset chat mixer only works when my headset is plugged in. I didn't have any issue with it operating functionally up until about 2 weeks ago. I've performed hard resets on my console and headset but no matter what I do, the chat mixer exclusively works when plugged directly into the console. Please advise!

    :)

    Howdy Georges,

    Thanks for your reply. I'm referring to a USB cable when I say it's directly connected. When it is plugged in to the console with the USB cable, I am able to use the chat mixer as intended. As soon as I remove it from the cable, it reverts to a 50/50 split between game and party and the chat mixer no longer works.

    My headset is up to date.

    Howdy,

    The issues seems to persist. The headset works fine aside from the chat mixer not functioning

    Howdy George,

    Oddly enough, the chat mixer wheel works just fine OFF of my head but when I put it on, it reverts. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    Hello again, try to upatde the headset on console and then do the procedure below, because it is strange that it works only when connected with the USB cable.

    Xbox One reset keeping Games:

    Press the Xbox button to open the panel.

    Select system > Settings > System > Console Information

    Select Reset console.

    Restore and maintain my games and apps.

    Rest assured, you won't miss games or saves

    Note: You need to know the email and passwords of your accounts when performing this reset.

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Trevor, when it says connected directly on xbox, is referring to a connection with USB cable, if yes, it is not working when connected by Bluetooth?

    In addition to the procedures on the console, you tried to update the firmware on your headset, in case you haven't tried it by the link below.
