    No game audio unless headphones plugged in


    I am an alpha preview and the last 3 days, my TV audio will not work unless a headphone is plugged in. Pulling up the guide... sound comes back... go back to the game... audio shuts off again. I have put this in the insider hub and posted about it.

    I have hard rebooted, soft and even pulled power. Nothing changes... to get TV audio... headphones have to be plugged in.....

    Very very odd.

    :)

    Where Will the Audio Come From, And How?

    I think you can plug the headphones into your controller and then adjust the settings to get the game audio to come out of your headphones. I know that not all headsets give you game audio and will only give you voice audio when playing with other players.

    Earphones for Xbox One with chat?

    You can plug headphones straight into the chat adaptor to receive game audio or sound from anything plugged into the xbox

    XBOX One Chat Adapter & Turtle Beach Issue

    The chat adapter pulls game audio and chat to the headphons. I'm using a pair of Bose headphones with an inline mic. Works a charm with headset adapter. No wire to console. Its wireless. Just plug the 4pole 3.5mm plug into adapter, and I get game audio and
    chat. If you dont believe me, do some research.

    Are non-xbox 360 headphones compatible with xbox 360?

    Not headphones, the controller plug is smaller and used for chat, headphones won't fit. My 360 Turtle beach headset gets its game audio from the TV too.

    Turtle Beach Earforce X11

    The red & white plugs that come with the headset need to be connected to the xbox audio cables, this should solve the problem. Another possiblity is to plug the green headphone plug on the end of the headset into the TV's headphone jack.

    Audio Issue regarding Razer headsets

    Can you try plugging the Razer into a "normal" audio device like a MP3 player or your smartphone and play music through the headset?

    Does that work?

    If that works, try to plug the headset into a different controller if you have one.

    In the console settings, go to "Display & Sound" and in the audio settings, make sure that audio output through headphones is selected. Also make sure, that you have selected "Stereo" or "Windows Sonic" as sound output, unless you have actually paid money
    in the Dolby Atmos app.

    If you just downloaded the Dolby Atmos App, and didn't pay them for Dolby Atmos for Headphones, the audio output will stop working after 14 days.

    You can then either purchase Dolby Atmos for Headphones, or switch to Windows Sonic, which does basically the same: giving you spatial 3D surround sound via headphones. For free.
