    No game audio through headset


    I am having issues with the audio output on my Steel Series Arctis 9X headset when connecting it to my PC while gaming. I figured out how to make it my primary headphone output and microphone input. And it works fine when in Discord and playing a steam game or anything else. But when I try to use “Win+G” or the Xbox Companion app to be in an xbox party and play a game at the same time, I can only hear the audio of the party and nothing in the game. I have searched the settings of the game, the xbox app and the computer settings. I would like to play Sea of Thieves with my friends on the xbox but cannot enjoy the full game with sound because of this. Please help

    :)

    the newer 3.5mm controller

    The chat headset is designed to only give you chat audio, and leave game audio coming through your television.

    Any other headset will give you both game and chat audio through the headset, whether you use the new controller or the older version with the headset adapter.

    Headset Echoing

    If using headset for game audio and chat, mute the TV or any device your game and chat audio is coming through and make sure 'chat' is set to output through headset only. If you have your tv volume up in the background while you're on the headset there
    will probably be echoing especially if you have your party audio set to output through your TV.

    XBOX One Chat Adapter & Turtle Beach Issue

    Actually the chat adapter that they are selling as of today does send both game audio and chat audio. There are even two buttons on the adapter itself that you can use to adjust the game audio vs chat audio percentage. The new Polk headset and the two
    new Turtle Beach X1 headsets get all game and chat audio through the new stereo headset adapter that was released today.

    I imagine that your modified version of the adapter is actually a much better solution for 3rd party headset users, because it was modified off of the chat microphone and adapter that came with the X1. It was designed to just deliver chat audio back and
    forth.

    Now that Microsoft has gone down the road of both game and chat audio coming through the controller and adapter, it has changed the playing field. It is great if you use a headset that doesn't have any other audio signal coming to your headset.

    Also, I did look through the link above. It is where I got the idea to turn game audio to 0% and chat audio to 100% coming through the adapter. Thanks for the idea though.
