    Surround Sound Problems for Xbox One Since March Update


    I just downloaded the patch which added surround sound for the optical out port. Overall it works except for one issue. My centre speaker is inconsistent when is comes to outputting sound.

    Games do not use the centre speaker, neither does the YouTube app, for the most part neither does Netflix but here is the interesting part, certain movies on Netflix work perfectly whilst others don't.

    The speaker is fully functional, it works fine when used as part of the unit just not with the Xbox.

    So I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue, the fact that certain Netflix films use it but not others has me really perplexed.

    Thanks in advance,

    Omegan

    Surround Sound not working after update?

    Hi all,

    Is anyone having a problem with the Surround Sound not working after the update?

    I have a pair of Astro headphones plugged into the optical out. In the Xbox menu, I have selected 'Bitstream Out' and then 'DTS Digital Surround'. No sounds comes out of the headphones (except for a bit of white noise in the left ear speaker). Am I doing
    anything wrong? Is anyone else having the same problems?

    Does anyone have a clue how to get surround sound post March update?

    Thanks all

    They added Dolby digital 5.1 in the recent march update so the optical surround sound should work the way you are connecting the base station. Try re-pairing the headset to the base station or check if you have dolby digital selected and not a PCM option.

    Advice for your surround sound system: If you can, always connect the optical sound from the source device (xbox) to your surround sound system. This will prevent any delay an extra device (your TV) may impose upon your audio since its going through one
    decoder (TV) to another (surround sound system).

    They are definitely forcing users to buy HDMI surround sound equipment to consolidate the HDCP dilemna. Too bad they don't realize gamers use headsets ;)
