    My son plays Fortnite most days with friends and it alwasy works fine. Today his friends can’t hear him, but he can hear them. We have tried a different headset and have the same problem. We have ensured in settings that it is turned to everyone. We’ve been googling for hours trying lots of things but nothing has worked! Please help, thank you

    :)

    Hi CL92, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Please, can you give more details?

    Are you playing on an Xbox Console or a PC?

    If he's using a console, please, run the audio setup tool.

    Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Volume & audio output.

    Select the Audio setup option under Advanced.

    Highlight the audio setup option you wish to use and then press the A button to begin the audio test.

    I hope this helps.

    Hello CL92,

    On the audio testing, did his microphone work?

    Please, power cycle the console to clear its cache data and try again.

    To do it, follow these steps:

    Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

    Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 60 seconds.

    Important Be sure to wait at least 60 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

    Plug the console power cable back in.

    Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    Let me know if it works!

    headset

    hi, its a TB Recon 150, wired. I have tried a new TB Recon 50P and have the same issue. My son mainly plays Fortnite but we have tried Minecraft too and we can still hear sound through the TV as well as through the headset. He can hear his friends but
    they can't hear him when playing Fortnite.

    My son can hear his teammates but they can’t hear him?

    Using the A button for push to talk is a bad idea, it's one of the ost used buttons on the controller and may be the root of your issue.

    Which Turtle beach recon did you buy? is it the Xbox version?
