  1. Need help with xbox controller and headset.


    I bought a design lab controller a couple months ago, and one day my headset started crackling when plugged in. I have tried everything possible to remove the crackle, even up to replacing the audio jack, but it did not work. It is not the headset, because
    it works with everything else, so it must be the controller. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this? I tried support, but they have nothing, and of course my warranty has expired because why would Microsoft ever want to stand behind their products? Anyways
    if anyone has a solution, thanks.

    :)

    Hi there Tazzie,

    Thanks for the reply. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with a headset and sound. To help clarify, are you seeing a mute icon on your homepage when the headset is connected?

    I recommend to try this:

    • Try your Xbox One Stereo Headset with another device, such as a laptop, to see if the headset is working. If not, the headset will need to be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the
      Xbox Online Service Center.
    • Try your Stereo Headset and Stereo Headset Adapter on another controller, if you can.
    • If the headset works on the second controller, try
      updating the first controlleragain.
    • If that fails, the controller will need to be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the
      Xbox Online Service Center.

    Hope this helps.

    Headset picks up as a controller

    Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

    Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

    I understand you need help with your headset problem.

    Try checking the manufacturer if the headset has some updates you need to do in order for it to work with the Xbox controller.

    If other headsets are working fine, this could already be an issue with the headset that you are using. Try it on a different controller as well just to isolate the issue.

    Also, check if your controller needs an update.

    Friends Can Hear Audio Through My Headset

    Hey there
    Henry,

    Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with a headset on Xbox.



    I recommend taking a look at the following troubleshooting articles:


    If the problem persists:

    • Try another headset using the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter.

    • Try your Xbox One Stereo Headset with another device, such as a laptop, to see if the headset is working. If not, the headset will need to be replaced.


    Hope this helps.

    headset adapter for xbox one S controller

    Hello Jabsa, for what I saw here, you don't need a adapter for Xbox One S controller, just for the Original Xbox One controller. So you can simply plug your headset directly to the headset jack on the controller.

    Hope it helps.

    best regards
