Why can I hear audio through an older Xbox controller but not my Xbox One X Controller?

With the headset and adapter plugged into the controller that came with your Xbox One X, try going into the audio settings in the guide. There should be in the middle that's called "chat mixer."

If you move the slider all the way to the left, then you should get only the audio from the game. All the way to the right is for chat / party.

If the "chat mixer" option isn't there, then I can only assume it's a hardware issue.

Why cant i talk on my xbox in a party. I can hear other people talking but they cant hear me. Ive tried different controllers and headphones so it is not my controller. Ive also looked through my settings and its not on mute or anything . Any help
?

Hi,

first of all I suggest you follow all these steps:

I did this and it didn't fix my problem. I can't hear game audio through my controller. I've tried using different controllers, same result. Using different mics on those controllers, still same result. I've also used the headsets on different devices
like my phone and PC and they work fine. To add to it I can hear chat audio, I just can't hear game audio through the headset. I'm thinking it's a controller issue or Xbox issue. I've changed the audio output to something else doesn't fix it.

Interestingly, I can hear audio from the xbox through my earbuds, the controllers just don't seem to be sending the microphone audio to the xbox. I was under the impression that the 3.5mm port on the new controllers had both audio and mic capabilities, am
I wrong?

I know that the microphone is sending sound to the controller and I know it's getting sent to the correct pins on the 3.5mm port...

In theory, a bluetooth adapter plugged into the headset jack on the controller (or the stereo adapter for older controllers) might allow this. I see several products that will do this for stereo audio to your airpods, but in my brief search I wasn't able
to find one that supported stereo audio and a microphone for chat support although I see no reason why such a thing couldn't exist. That's the best way I can see to do this with what Xbox supports today.
