Thanks so much for your help you deserve a raise I can’t thank you enough

Hello Jarod,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We understand you are having issues with your headset not working on game chat anymore. Let's work on this together and sort this out in timely manner for you to get back to gaming. There are a few possible causes and solutions for this problem, depending on your headset model and settings.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:

- Make sure your headset is connected properly to your controller or console. You may need an adapter or a splitter cable for some headsets. You can find more information on how to connect different types of headsets here: Connect a compatible headset | Xbox Support


- Make sure your headset volume and chat mixer settings are adjusted correctly. You can change these settings from the guide menu by pressing the Xbox button on your controller, then selecting Profile & system > Settings > Devices & connections > Volume. You can also use the buttons on your headset or controller to adjust the volume and mute the microphone.

- Make sure your privacy and online safety settings allow you to communicate with other players. You can change these settings from the guide menu by pressing the Xbox button on your controller, then selecting Profile & system > Settings > Account > Privacy & online safety > Xbox Live privacy > View details and customize > Communication & multiplayer. You can also check the parental controls if you have a child account.

- Make sure your network connection is stable and has enough bandwidth for game chat. You can test your network connection from the guide menu by pressing the Xbox button on your controller, then selecting Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings > Test network connection. You can also check the network status and troubleshoot any issues here: Xbox Status | Xbox Support

- Try updating your controller firmware and headset software. You can update your controller firmware from the guide menu by pressing the Xbox button on your controller, then selecting Profile & system > Settings > Devices & connections > Accessories. You can update your headset software from the Xbox Accessories app or from your PC, depending on your headset model. You can find more information on how to update different types of headsets here: Set up and configure your Xbox Wireless Headset | Xbox Support

If none of these steps work, you may need to contact the headset manufacturer for further assistance or warranty service. You can also contact Xbox Live Support for further assistance. You can reach them on this link: Contact us | Xbox Support. Click on "Contact Us" to chat with Live Support or request a callback.

I hope this helps resolve the issue. We appreciate your patience and cooperation. Have a great day!
