Streaming while headset is plugged in?

A patch was released for the xbox app, and that has fixed this issue for me. Used my PC mic while streaming earlier today without issue, so this seems to have been fixed, finally.

Same. Not sure if it matters but I'm using the Xbox beta app, mic worked with headset plugged into the controller while streaming.

Hi Benneh360,

To use a headset while streaming. Plug your USB headset (or microphone) into your Windows 10 PC or your chat headset into your controller before beginning Game Streaming. Your headset must be selected as the default playback and recording device on
your PC. To access this setting, open Control Panel, select Hardware and Sound, and then select Manage Audio Devices.

How to Stream Games to Windows 10

I don't know if this is the right thread to put this in but it seems relatable. The xbox app came with Win 10 and in it is a Xbox One Stream feature. I had an idea to record the in game chat of the game while playing. I started streaming and plugged in a
headset but to my dismay the headset did not relay any voice. It appeared connected on the television/game and the mute button lit up but no voice would play through the mic. I tried plugging in the headset before running the stream but that just caused the
stream to reveal the error message: "We couldn't stream from your console. Try again later.". It is kinda hard to record in game chat when you cannot talk while streaming. I am not sure if this is a glitch or a known programmed safeguard. If anyone has any
info that could help please let me know.

P.S. The recording application and the external mic used to record my audio were not in use when the above events occurred.

Ok, so I figured out that to get game audio/chat to work while streaming, we had to hook the controller up to the computer we are streaming to via USB. The headset stayed plugged into the controller. Yay! Game audio AND chat!

NEXT PROBLEM: there seems to be no way to control game volume/chat volume while streaming. We have mute chat at the top, but that is all. The computer volume controls do not affect the stream, and the volume controls on the controller adapter also seem to
do nothing.

How do you control game/chat volume while streaming?

Is this with all games or only one?

Are you playing Windows 10 games or streaming Xbox One games through the Xbox App when this happens?

If you plug the headset directly into the PC instead of into the controller, does this still happen (for instance playing the same game, or even when not gaming - like listening to music)?

I would imagine the problem could be arising from plugging the headset into the controller, which is more meant for console use, while on PC you'd be better off plugging the headset into your PC directly, but let us know how you get on.
