    Use headphones through 3.5mm jack with Elite Series 2 Wireless Controller and Win 10 PC


    Connected my Elite Series 2 controller - Have updated it through the accessories app, fiddled with the settings -

    works with games for input and sound with USB connected. However cannot get sound with Bluetooth connection.

    The settings for audio input to xbox controller disappears when not plugged by USB.

    Is there a way to keep sound through the controller with Bluetooth connection or do I have to have a physical connection for windows to use it as a sound output?

    :)

    Thanks. this is what i was thinking.

    are you sure buying the dongle will work?

    I am led to understand one of the perks of the elite 2 is that you arent supposed to need the dongle......

    Bluetooth does not have the bandwidth for Xbox audio. You need to either purchase the wireless controller adapter or use a USB connection for headset support

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Daddy, unfortunately it is not possible, because the system will always force you to choose a device as sound output, and will have to opt for some of them.

    Xbox Series X controller on PC, no sound through jack when wireless

    Hi,

    If you're using Bluetooth to play wireless with the controller then audio won't come through the 3.5mm headphone jack. Nothing wrong with your setup, it's a hardware limitation of the controller.

    To use all the features of the controller while wireless requires the purchase of an Xbox One wireless adaptor for Windows.

    Xbox Elite Controller no sound

    Hi Zen!

    Thanks for letting us know you're experiencing an issue with your Elite controller. Based on what you've stated about your 3.5mm headphone jack not working, I would like to know if you have done the

    troubleshooting steps for the Elite controller
    from our Xbox support page? Or rather, how you came to the conclusion (what troubleshooting you have done) that the 3.5mm jack has stopped working?

    If you have already done all troubleshooting and are certain that the headphone jack is no longer working, then I recommend

    setting up a repair for your Elite controller
    since the headphone jack is an internal part of the controller body.

    Hope this helps and please let us know if you have any further questions!
