Xbox headset not playing game or party audio but I can still hear myself when I monitor my mic.

Thanks for the reply,

I probably should have clarified that my headset was working before I plugged it into my pc.

I can hear through only one ear if I play it through my phone, and it is compatible so I haven't needed any adapters.

I have tried another controller and it is the same results.

I have read through both links and nothing has helped.

As I mentioned, I can still hear mic monitoring through it, if that helps anything.

Again, Thanks for the reply.

Hey there DrDark,



Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is an issue with using a headset on the Xbox One
controller.



I recommend taking a look at the following troubleshooting articles:

• Connecting
  a compatible headset to Xbox One
  
• Xbox
  One controller and headset compatibility
  

If the problem persists:

• Try your Xbox One Stereo Headset
  with another device, such as a laptop, to see if the headset is working. If not, the headset will need to be replaced.
  
• Try using a Headset Adapter for compatibility issues.
  
• Try your Headset on another controller, if you can. If the headset works on the second controller, try
  updating the first controlleragain.
  If that fails, the controller will need to be replaced. To order a replacement, go to the
  Xbox Online Service Center.
  

Try this out and let us know the results.

Sounds like a headset or a xbox controller problem ... do u have another controller to try the headset in to see if its the controller that is the problem? Or do u have another headset to plug into the controller to see if the other headset is the problem?

I'll try that. Thanks for your assistance.

Hi there DrDark,

Thanks for the reply. In reference to your description, it sounds like the headset may be compromised. Have you tried a different headset?

If the headset is a 3rd party product, I recommend to contact the headset manufacturer for more assistance.

Hope this helps.
