Voice volume control?

I dont know if anyone else is having issues with hearing people correctly but I am. They are very soft spoken or, at times, I do not hear them at all when they are clearly transmitting. I know they could be using their kinect mic and depending on how far
or close away they are will determine the strength of their voice while transmitting. My question is this: Just like in the Xbox 360 is there or can there be an option put in to where only voice chat comes through the headset and game audio stays on my TV?

Voice chat issues

The only area I could find that had an option like that was to go under Preferences --> Voice, which then had options of Voice output, Game Volume, and Voice Volume. Both volumes set to max, output set to headset. Nothing has improved through switching them
however.

 

TB X12 + adapter problems

So I updated my controller and what not. Plugged everything in as required.

The game volume wheel on the headset doesn't work. There isn't two channels of audio (game and voice) how it normally functioned on my 360. The chat volume wheel only works to adjust the game/voice volume. So if someone is in my party i can't hear them unless
i crank up the chat volume wheel which results in turning up the game volume as well.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?
