    no sound goes through headphones when using controller wirelessly


    i'm on windows pc and i just bought an xbox wireless controller and my headphones (not xbox headphones) don't work when the controller is connected through bluetooth. i don't think there's anything wrong with the headphone jack or my headphones because it works when it is plugged in. anything i can do to fix this?

    :)

    The controller does not support the headphones on Bluetooth. You will need to purchase the Xbox wireless adapter if you wish to use the headset plugged into the controller.

    New Xbox controller

    Sounds like it could be the headphone jack on the controller itself. That's usually what goes out when a mic stops working.

    New 3.5mm Xbox One controllers don't seem to output sound unless a mic is detected?

    I am having a similar issue with the new Master Chief controller for Xbox One. When I use my ear buds (without mic) I get sound through the controller and everything works fine. When I use my new headphones (over ear Bluetooth/aux capable) with the 3.5mm
    cable it detects the headphones but does not play sound. The headphones work on all of my other devices with 3.5mm jack.

    Audio headphones/Turtle beach streaming mic

    Hi there,

    When the audio headphones are plugged into the AV receiver, there is game sound, but I cant hear anyone in my party chat. I only see their gamertag show up in the chat overlay. They hear me thru the stream mic just fine. In Halo 5, setting audio to Speaker,
    or to Headphones doesnt change anything.

    If I plug the headphones into the Turtle Beach stream mic, its onboard amplifier does a decent job driving the audio headphones, since the stream mic is powered via USB, but the amplifier is low quality by comparison to my AV receiver. I only got the stream
    mic so I could use my AV receiver to listen to my audio headphones in online gaming. I never expected or planned on using it to power the headphones.

    Can I even can plug the Sennheiser game headphones into the AV receiver and the Mic into the controller now? If this stream mic is already connected to the XBOX via USB, and chat is only available when the headphones are connected into the stream mic and
    both run to the XBOX wired via USB, is it correct to assume that PC gaming headphones with a built in mic also cannot be split (the mic connected to the controller and chat sound coming through the AV receiver)? Im starting to think both the headphones and
    the mic must be connected to the controller together, communicating to the XBOX wirelessly, or ill just get game sound through the headphones and no chat like I am niw with this set up?

    Some updating controller trouble.

    The controller that has a 3.5mm headphone jack can be updated wirelessly. Other than that any micro USB cable can be used to update the controller.
