Sound dropouts with stereo adapter

If you are talking about the Chat headset, that comes with Xbox One, then No. If you are talking about Stereo Headset, with an Stereo Headset Adapter. then Yes. Using the Stereo Headset Adapter give to both Chat and Game sound to the headset. If you TV,
is connected to the Xbox, your TV sound, will go to the headset.

Hi Legend of RDG

If I understand your question...

Q: If you buy the Stereo Adapter, will this allow you to hear sound.

A: Yes, the stereo adapter will allow you to plug in headphones to hear sound. I omitted the headset that comes with the adapter just in case you already have headphones.

(The Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter lets you plug a compatible chat or stereo headset into the Xbox One Controller to control your audio experience without taking your hands off the controller.)

The adapter will work with many existing headphones, but you can opt to buy the Xbox Headphones (w/Mic) and adapter too

Hi there...

my first question...

1. Have you updated the controller via USB while this headset is turned on and plugged into the stereo adapter?

2. I dont have Turtle beach headset but maybe its worth asking TB support if you should use this adapter instead of the xbox one stereo adapter -

Sound (game only) should come in from the adapter wireless if you have connected the sound output correctly. It sounds like you have as it works, not plugged in.

Chat, is the only reason you are plugging in this into the stereo adapter so what I'm reading is that, when you plug in the headset, this is where the problem begins.

I see on the TB website that they are pointing everyone to "their" adapter.

Which adapter are you using? The Xbox One stereo adapter or the TB stereo adapter?

If its the Xbox One stereo adapter, I would suggest contacting TB support to understand the difference between the two.

You mean the headset adapter for the controller?

The adapter currently supports stereo audio. You'll get all the same sounds that the Xbox One puts over HDMI, just in a stereo format (no 5.1).

Hey Sigma,

I'm interested on "At the moment I'm using the regular MS stereo headset with the headset adapter and occasionally I get clicks/pops/dropouts in the audio. Not too much, but it's still a little annoying.". I'm using Turtle Beach XO7 with MS stereo headset
adepter and I got exactly the same feeling with you. Did you try to replace the adepter to see if it improve? I wonder if I should try that or it is a common issue?
