MY MIC WON'T WORK AT ALL

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Rapi6s

Both headsets are wireless headsets or wired headsets?

If its the second, do you have more than one Xbox controller?

If yes, can you try connecting the headset to another controller to see if that makes a difference?

Also, just to confirm. Double check if you don't have an enforcement action / suspension active in your account

In the meantime please tell me what did you tried so far to fix this problem

In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

The mic won't work. In general it won't work in place of an xbox mic

Go to your settings and make sure that the audio is more near chat than game. Theres a slide bar that you can adjust.

Hey @fxntasi! I hope that you are doing well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

Step 1: Check if your mic isn't muted:

First make sure that your mic isn’t muted, then check in headset settings that Auto-mute is not set to High. If that doesn’t fix the problem, restart both devices, and check to see if a firmware update is available for your headset.

Step 2 : Check your settings:

1. Go to your privacy settings and allow communication with everyone. You can do so by tapping the Xbox button. Now, go to System > Settings > Account > Privacy & online safety > Xbox Live privacy. Select View details & customize > Communication & multiplayer, and make the changes.
   
2. Unmute or unblock those you are looking to chat with. Tap the Xbox button. In the guide, click on Multiplayer > Party. Tap on Party to open up the party roster, and select the people you want to unmute, and select Unmute.
   
3. If your chat audio is not clear or a bit choppy, this could also be related to your Xbox One controller update. To fix this, both you and the friend will need to ensure that your controllers are up to date.
   
4. You also need to make sure that you're not experiencing network latency or other network problems.
   

I hope this helps you out! wish you lovely day!

Kind regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

Sorry, but I've already tried these and they didn't work. I really don't know what to do anymore. The only option I have is to try to buy a new Xbox, but I don't have the money for that.
