    My Xbox Mic will not work?


    Hey ive had an xbox series S for a couple months now. I noticed that my mic didnt work so i tried some different headphones. (Apple wired ear buds, sennheiser 450bt, bose quietcomfort 15) and the mic didnt work. Next i watched a bunch of youtube videos and followed all their instructions, (adjust the settings, restart console, and more) nothing worked. So i moved on to forums posts and still no matter what i have done the mic will simply just not work. Has anyone got any miracle solutions?

    :)

    My Xbox Mic will not work?

    Hello, if the headphones work fine with other devices, then the problem is not with the headphones. If you have had the same problem with previous Xbox consoles, then the problem may be with the console settings or with the console hardware.

    Changing your age on your Microsoft account should have nothing to do with the microphone issue.

    The static noise you notice when microphone monitoring is on may be an indicator of an issue with the console's hardware.

    Hello Edward,my name is Marvina, I will be happy to help you.

    I'm so sorry for what you're going through, make sure the headset you're using is compatible with Xbox.

    Wired headsets must have a 3.5mm jack, and wireless headsets must be compatible with Xbox Wireless.

    If headphones are supported, make sure they are properly connected to the console.

    Wired headphones should be connected to the 3.5mm headphone port on the front of the console.

    The wireless headset must be connected to the console using the Xbox Wireless adapter.

    Once you've verified that the headset is connected correctly, make sure the microphone is enabled in the console settings. To do this, go to Settings > Devices and accessories > Headphones. Make sure the Microphone switch is on.

    If the microphone still doesn't work, you can try restarting the console. To do this, press and hold the power button on the console for 10 seconds.

    Try the headset on another Xbox console. If they work on another console, the problem may be with your console.

    Try other headsets on your console. If they work with other headphones, the problem may be with your headphones.

    Update your console firmware. To do this, go to Settings > System > Console information > Update console.

    I hope I have answered your question correctly, I wish you a Merry Christmas.

    Sincerely,
    Marvina.
