Television Audio Through Xbox One Headset

RCblackbelt24 · Mar 8, 2014

If I have the passthrough connected and I switch to watch TV through the Xbox One will the television audio come through the headset? I would like to be able to use it for for games as well as tv and video. Thanks for any response.

the newer 3.5mm controller

The chat headset is designed to only give you chat audio, and leave game audio coming through your television.

Any other headset will give you both game and chat audio through the headset, whether you use the new controller or the older version with the headset adapter.

Headset audio output

The tv has audio output and the headset is connects. the audio comes through the headset just fine when it is on a regular television channel, as soon as I switch to HDMI the audio stops though, despite the fact that nothing has changed between the headset-tv
connection. It's as if when I switch the television to HDMI, the output jacks just cease to function

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.

Do you have a xbox headset adapter plugged into your XO controller? That is the only way to get third party headsets working with the Xbox one. It all works (audio and voice) through the xbox one controller not your television. The adapter can be bought
for $24.95 at the Microsoft store.

Does it at least support game audio through the included Xbox One headset?
