    Stereo Headset and Adapter Issues


    same problem here with XO four's must be the adapter, wish Microsoft would acknowledge there is a problem and there working on it so we don't have to return product that probably isn't bad.

  2. I too get pop/crackling through the menu through my surround sound setup connected via digital optical cable to the xbox one. I also got the pop/crackling/sound cut outs through the Polk 4 Shots, the X0 4's AND the MS Stereo Headset. I sent my console
    off for RMA back in 1st week of March, 3 weeks later I got my console back with a letter stating they couldnt find anything wrong with my console. They obviously never once CALLED ME TO GO OVER MY ISSUE...nor did they probably check out the digital optical
    port/stereo headsets. Probably connected through just the hdmi, wasnt getting the problem, and sent it back. SUCH POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! Im waiting on a advocate team to contact me regarding my refund of my console/extended warranty/digital game purchases/season-passes/dlc
    since i've bought this garbage. Shame on MS for not caring enough to actually contact your customer when they had an issue and you couldnt find it. I work as a automobile service writer and how would you feel if you dropped your car off because it was sticking
    in gears on the highway and I kept it for 3 weeks and then called you and said you can come pick it up, then when you got there I told you we couldnt find anything wrong with your car and its good to go...then later it sticks in gears on the highway????!!!!
    you CALL THE CUSTOMER ON THE ISSUE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU DONT EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM THEY'RE HAVING! DUH! Common business ethics 101.

    Stereo Headset and Adapter Issues

    My issue is a bit different. The audio becomes garbled or choppy after 10 or so minutes of use. If I unplug the headset and re-plug it clears up for another 10 minutes. I purchased the adapter with the Microsoft Headset but have the same problem with other
    headsets. Have not noticed the problem while gaming but while watching Netflix etc.

  5. "As of the April 2014 Xbox One System Update, the firmware update for the controller and stereo headset adapter has been updated and includes significant improvements to audio quality with the Stereo Headset Adapter and the process of updating controllers.
    If you have taken the update previously and are having issues with your stereo headset adapter, please update your controller again with the latest Controller Update. You can update your controller by going to Settings, System, and then Controller update."
    -- from bottom of page linked below:

    support.xbox.com/.../update-controller-for-stereo-headset-adapter

    It is now April and still no update. So this means by the end of April?

  6. I am having audio issues as well. I recently just went out and bought a new controller and I'm hoping it'll fix the audio drop outs and constant clicking sound I heard while using the chat adapter. I personally had bought the XO Sevens, but sold those because
    of the drop outs of audio and plus it didn't have mic mirroring like I thought it would have.

    My set up is basically the kinect is sitting on top of my tv and my xbox is inside my tv stand. I open the glass doors so I have a clear signal to the console. I'm only about 7 to 8 feet from the Xbox itself. I notice the clicking sounds happening all the
    time and sometimes the audio just drops out and sometimes my controller just disconnects as well. It's so annoying. I'm playing Wolfenstein at the moment, but it's done it with almost every game I've played. I use only the adapter and use my own set of headphones.
    It doesn't matter what type of headphones I use, it's always doing it. I need to try the getting closer to my xbox, but man.... I'm only 8 feet away. I'ts july and after this last update, it's still doing it. When will this be fixed? I want to play Destiny
    this September and I'll NEED to be playing on a headset. This is going to just send me through the roof if these issues keep happening.

    Things I've tried:

    I've turned off my phone (still does it)

    My wifi router is 8 feet away sitting on top of my fireplace... don't see how that's affecting it

    I've plugged in my controller using the USB cable (used to work, now it doesn't. Still clicks and drops sound)

    I'm running out of ideas here

    HELP!

    Xbox One S and Official Stereo Headset Adapter not recognized

    Hi Zathrus,

    We have two of the
    Xbox Stereo Headset
    with Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter, and both sets have worked well with no problems for sometime now. And I have used the
    adapter with non-Microsoft headset with no issues. So, given that you say your "3.5 mm cabled headset " works directly connected to the controller, then I regret to say it would seem that the fault lies with the adapter itself and may need to be replace.

    Stereo Headset Adapter issues and questions

    If you have a question or problem using the Stereo Headset Adapter, see the following topics.

    Stereo Headset Adapter isn’t working

    If your Stereo Headset Adapter isn’t functioning well, check the following:

    Have you updated your controller’s software to support the Stereo Headset Adapter?

    Make sure your controller has fresh batteries. When the batteries get weak, some controller functions like audio and rumble get turned off to conserve the remaining power.

    Make sure your headset adapter is firmly plugged into your controller and that your stereo headset’s 3.5-mm cable is securely plugged into the headset adapter. You will know it’s plugged in properly if you press the mute button and the LED lights up.
    If the mute light comes on and you have updated your controller but your headset isn’t working, consult the manual or manufacturer.

    Try your Stereo Headset Adapter on another controller if you can. If the adapter works on the second controller, try updating the first controller again. If that fails, the controller will need to be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the Xbox Online
    Service Center.
