No Audio through Headphones connected to Xbox one controller-Wireless Bluetooth-Windows 10

I believe that Xbox controllers only transmit and receive audio through the Xbox wireless signal and not via Bluetooth. If using Bluetooth to connect the controller, you need to use a different method for audio. Wired controllers and controllers connected with the Microsoft wireless dongle can use the headphone jack for audio.

Hi Alexander,

Thanks for reaching out! The Xbox One S is not equipped to support Bluetooth devices. The one option would be to

Connect the Xbox One Wireless controller and use the 3.5mm jack to connect/receive audio through a Bluetooth speaker. In regards to the wireless headphones, check out this troubleshooting page for

Xbox One controller and headset compatibility.

Hope this helps. Let us know

Hi,

If you're using Bluetooth to play wireless with the controller then audio won't come through the 3.5mm headphone jack. Nothing wrong with your setup, it's a hardware limitation of the controller.

To use all the features of the controller while wireless requires the purchase of an Xbox One wireless adaptor for Windows.

After quite a lot of head scratching back and forth conclusion was that I need an “adaptor” to get Audio/sound through Xbox One controller (Wireless/Bluetooth with pc Windows 10 ) which actually defies the main object when you are
on your pc (laptop) you might as well connect your Headphones to the Laptop.

Hello Algreco,

Thanks for keeping us updated. This function is possible according to a Bluetooth support article that compares connecting via the Wireless adapter : Connect

What happens if you try connecting the player 2 controller first, so that it is now considered player 1. Are you able to hear audio from the headset now? If not, then the controller could be faulty.
