    Periodic Static Noise on Wireless Headsets via USB


    I own the Astro A50s and I was told by Astro Support that the issue of periodic static has been reported to be resolved in one of the Preview Updates.

    I enrolled in the Insiders Program, been in it now for several weeks (received several updates) and I haven't gotten this so-called fix to the periodic static noise on my Astro A50s. (Here's just one of the Posts about it for reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/AstroGamin..._on_my_xsx_with_my_brand_new_astro_a50s_gen4/)

    I'm curious if A) someone did in fact receive a Preview Update with a fix to this. And B) does this periodic static noise happen on any other wireless headset (e.g. SteelSeries)?

    My Turtle Beach Ear Force DX12 headset has static white noise crackling popping sound when the mic cable is plugged into the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter and the controller is plugged into the Xbox with the Xbox One Play & Charge Kit at the same tim

    Used my brothers brand new Turtle Beach DXL1 headset with my two week old Xbox One and same problem happens. I always play with wired controllers (deceases input lag), so I used the Play & Charge kit cable (a week old) for my Xbox One wireless controller
    (two weeks old) every single time I play, which I plug into the back bottom USB slot. (When I use the Play & Charge cable to play, the data transfers over the cable like a wired controller, right?? I remember reading that somewhere) I plug my DXL1 headset
    into the DSS2 Surround Sound Processor (both brand new), which plugs into the back top USB slot of my Xbox One. I also love to use chat, however, when I plug in the DXL1 chat cable into the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter (also brand new) on my controller,
    there is an insane amount of static and white noise through headset speakers. When I unplug the mic, most of the static goes away. If I keep the mic plugged in, but I unplug the Play & Charge kit, then some of the static goes away. What it pretty much comes
    down to is I can either choose between having both chat and wired controller but insane static noise, having chat with a wireless controller with less static noise, having a wired controller with no chat with even less static noise, or having a wireless controller
    with no chat an having next to nothing of static noise.

    When I have both the headset and controller plugged into my Xbox One, am I overloading the power source which is causing the static? Maybe the One cannot handle multiple things plugged into it at the same time (DXL1 Headset + Xbox One Controller)... Or maybe
    it is the controller that cannot handle two things plugged into it at the same time (Play & Charge + Stereo Headset Adapter w/ mic). I tried plugging in the DXL1 Headset into my USB Samsung Galaxy Note 3 charger that plugs into the wall outlets instead of
    my Xbox One and that seems to mitigate the problem a little bit. Only a little bit though.

    I'm going to try another USB to micro-USB cable to use on my controller instead of the Play & Charge cable to see if that will help. If not, then I guess I'll just play with a wireless controller + chat, and charge the controller when I'm not playing. I
    don't think the input lag with wireless is that severe, or is it?

    Any tips, fixes, suggestions, comments are welcome please, thank you. :-]

    Microsoft Wireless Headset Buzzing

    Hi Jen

    This doesn't either, I've noticed that the sound disappears when it is hardwired to the USB port on the console? Not sure if I'm hearing static noises as it is wireless.

    Headset Adapter Static ONLY when using Micro-USB (instead of batteries)

    Hi, I have the same problem as laser it seems or similar , I'm using a scuf controller and I'm trying to play wired and when i plug it into the controller with or without the batteries a constant static noise is present. Without the usb connected theres
    no static noise when the batteries are in but i want to play with wired. The headset I'm using is the turtle beach headsets x12's through the headset adaptor.

    I don't know what to do, any suggestions or solutions ?

    Headset periodic static

    Usually static implies a short within the connection somewhere, can also be caused by a dirty connector.

    Is it possible to use the Xbox 360 controller with PC Minecraft?

    The Xbox 360 controller, assuming you’re using wireless only charges via USB. You would need to get the now discontinued 360 wireless adapter

    Any Xbox one controller will connect via USB, Bluetooth, or the Xbox wireless adapter. You need to use USB or the Xbox adapter for headset support
