sound blaster g6 and the new xbox

I have also external USB sound card (Sound Blaster x G6) with AKG K240 and same game works fine even when I turn on Dolby Atmos.

The problem I have is only on wireless new microsoft headset and when dolby atmos is turned on and only with some specific games that has atmos support. Like Warzone or Division 2.

Same games works just fine when I turn off Dolby Atmos - using the new microsoft wireless headset.

When I do other things or play other games it works just fine with Dolby Atmos turned on, but sometimes system switches by it self from Dolby Atmos to Windows Sonic when I lunch some games like Rocket League.

It's not a one game fault. It's a problem with Windows 10 driver, I think.

Hey there,

I'm using the Headset beyerdynamic MMX300 with the Astro Mixamp Pro TR (gen3). Now I want to change the DAC to a Creative Soundblaster G6. Now after a lot of reading I got the information that no DAC has a passtrough for partychat exept the mixamp and the
the turtle beach TAC.

So my question why other Manufacturer aren't supported and if it's possible to realize my plan with the G6. My idea would be to work with Y-cables or adapters.

So my mic would be connected with the controller and (maybe with the xbox chat adapter)

and the sound/output should pass through the DAC.

Would that work or other ideas for a really good DAC with supported partychat.

From what I can see on the official page https://en.creative.com/p/amplifiers/sound-blasterx-g6

seems that this will works without issue with Xbox One

You can use the Optical Out to an optical In device - but I do not think the Sound Blaster device is an Input device. Do you have a model number on the sound blaster item, I could not find anything on creative box.

You can use a 3.5mm jack to the sound blaster it should have a Green slot for audio in, the output for the 3.5mm jack should be on the back of the monitor.

Or you could get a set of headphones with optical input Turtle beach etc..

Also Here is how to use optical input on the sound blaster device.

So, regardless of whether the controller is connected or not I have this list:

SPDIF-Out (USB Sound Blaster HD)

Speaker (USB Sound Blaster HD)

MSI MPG341CQR (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)

Speakers (Steam Streaming Speakers)

Speakers (Steam Streaming Microphone)

Yes I am part of the update testers, but that was not causing the issue. My TV came with an external IR blaster that you would plug into it, capable of turning on all my devices (just like the xbox). Well I guess when I would turn on my xbox, the signal
was sent to all my devices (TV, Cable Box & Sound Bar), as well as the external IR blaster. so everything would turn on from the xbox, and when the external IR blaster got the signal it would send out a second signal, but it would only turn off the cable box.
I guess it wasn't strong enough for the TV, sound bar or to actually turn the xbox back off haha. O well the problem is resolved, I have unplugged the external IR blaster.
