Standard Mic stopped working

MattyP1514 · May 4, 2016

Hey all,

My standard mic that came with the xbox one stopped working. Not sure if it's broken or not but I can hear just can't talk. The Kinect acted as a mic just fine but I'd like to use a headset.

Are there any settings I can change to fix this?

:)

Standard headset mic stopped working

yep, same issue... it is so frustrating.. I can't even talk to my friends which is such a main part of playing xbox for me. I've been a member since at least 2010 and feel like I'm being used in a way. this is such a major issue I wish they would actually
do something about it. it makes me so upset I'm going to have to move move on from Xbox if this keeps going on so that I can play with my friends, as most of them have already moved on for these kind of issues..

Standard headset mic stopped working

Just like the hundreds of people I've seen throught the threads, my mic stopped working. I can hear people talk, but they can't hear me talk. This happens ON BOTH PARTY AND IN GAME CHAT. This happens yesterday while playing Destiny. I thought people were
ignoring me, until someone said I was too quite eventos though II had been talking nonstop.

This is just ridiculous. People have been having this issue and MS doesn't seem to care. Some support folks reply once in a while giving the same answers that don't work to every one for almost a year.

So, support guys, before asking me to do the same useless procedures you've asked everyone since january, let me say I have already gone through all the suggested testing and trobbleshooting pages. So please, don't come with that talk "we're working on it,
thanks for your feedback" kinda crap you write everyone. Give us, Live Gold subscribers who CANNOT TALK, something new.

If nothing helps and your Xbox One Headset is broken, it should be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the Xbox Online Service Center:

Check "Replace an accessory"

Hope this helps!

You should consider getting a different mic any time possible. Xbox standard Mics aren't that reliable if you plan on getting your hardcore gaming on. Buy some turtle beaches or afterglows. They'll last longer.

I bought both a standard mic, as a replacement, and a mic adapter, to use with my Beats 2 headphones. Neither are working (standard mic before and after controller update as a result of the mic adapter) on two separate controllers.

Remember Pluto

If you muted someone and there mic never stopping going then you will continue to hear them. There mic has to stop for the mic to start working.
