    Why is my chat mixer grayed out?


    I'm using an arctis 9x and my chat mixer is grayed out, yet it seems to change from 0% to 5% on it's own multiple times a second. Makes hearing others a pain, why?

    :)

    Why is my chat mixer grayed out?

    Hello AJ. I’ve tried everything you told me to do as well as trying different headsets controllers and trying to plug in the headset slowly. Nothing works and it’s getting frustrating.

    Hi, Trevor! Thank you for your reply.

    I'm sorry you are still experiencing issues with the chat mixer.

    If you don't mind, could you tell me what brand/model of Xbox controller and headset you are using? Some controllers and headsets have built-in features that override the console's chat mixer and allow you to control audio balance directly from your device.

    I'll be looking forward to your reply.
    Best regards.

    Hi, Trevor! Thank you for reaching out.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing issues with the headset chat mixer.

    • Do you, by any chance, have a different controller with your headset? Alternatively, you could try a different headset or set of earbuds/headphones with this controller.

    • Have you already made sure both your console and controller are up to date?

    - You can check for console updates at Settings > System > Updates.
    - You can check for controller updates by going to Settings > Devices and connections > Controllers and headsets > [...] under your controller.

    In addition to this, would you mind giving me a quick summary of the troubleshooting you've done so far?

    Thank you! I'll be looking forward to your reply.
    Best regards.

    Why is my Headset Chat Mixer grayed out?

    Thank you for the reply but I am still unable to use my headset. Although you said something about making sure Headset Chat Mixer is not off, and I cannot find an option with said description. Could you provide where in the settings this is at?

    Why is my Headset Chat Mixer grayed out?

    Hello Jake,

    Thank you for your prompt response.

    If you see an icon of Microphone being cross out it would mean that the volume of your microphone is muted. Can you check for any settings of your headset to increase the volume? You can refer to the manual of your headset on how to adjust the volume.

    We look forward to hearing from you. Please let us know if there are any misunderstandings or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



    Sincerely
