    Two Headset on xbox show up as only 1 person on screen


    We recently fixed our xbox so that both my son’s have their own accounts (vs. using Guest for one of them). All seemed fine. Then, they noticed that when either of them talked into their headset (separate ones plugged into separate controllers) it showed
    up as the same account/person talking. How do we separate them? 1 son is set up under my husband and one son is set up under me, as parents. They are using one xbox console playing ARK Survival. We hade no issues with them using their profiles as set
    up under my husband when playing Star Wars: Battlefront. Thank you.

    :)

    Ugh.. That is stupid. Who is going to buy a console for every kid in the house??

    To completely separate them you would need another console or PC. You can't use the same Xbox for that.

    Hi there LaieyJ,

    Thanks the reply and update. To help clarify,

    • Are they signed into a Microsoft Account?
    • Are you using one console?
    • Are you using party chat or in-game chat?

    Let us know so we may further assist.

    OHMYGAWD! The boys fixed their problem. Apparently, the one had turned his headset to mute without knowing it! Sheesh. Everything is back to normal with each of them using their own profile and their own headset and controller on a single console.
    Thanks for all your help!

    So, if they are both playing with two different controllers and headphones, they will always show up as only one person on the screen when talking?
