When I plug in any earbuds to the xbox controller, there is a high pitched noise and then...

this is usually a controller problem i have had the same issue i use the controller that does that for single player gaming and i use my other controller for multiplayer, streaming, etc and this is a common problem and i would recommend buying a new controller

Hope this helped

Hello aTTak zAk,

I understand you are experiencing an issue with your Xbox One controller producing a high-pitch noise and shutting off when a headset is plugged in. To troubleshoot this try plugging in a USB cable to the controller and attaching a headset. If the issue
persists, please use the
Device Support page or the
Contact Us portal to speak to an agent about replacing your controller.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for being a part of the Xbox Family.

When I have mine on I don't hear a high pitched noise like that. If that helps any.

Everyone posted the answer before me but I have one tip DO NOT USE IPHONE EARBUDS The reason for this is because they switched something with the Aux cord and it doesn't detect the mic right if you try using them in a party it just plays
