    Xbox One Chat headset not working properly with Forza Horizon 3


    i got Forza Horizon 3 on WIN10, the game works fine with my xone elite wireless controller but the chat headset does not detect in the game. The mic icon next to my name is either crossed out or if it isn't (which happens randomly), it doesn't light up when
    I speak. Other players seem to be able to hear me but their voice through my headset is really broken with lots of distorted noise.

    i tried the mic with other games on steam and it works just fine.

    specs:

    WIN10 upgraded from 8.1

    i7-4770K@4.4GHZ

    Asus ROG Maximus Hero VI (on board Realtech HD audio sound card)

    Asus Strix Geforce 980TI OC

    16G Ram

    please help, it's a great game but not being able to chat with other players really takes away the experience.

    And I'm really disappointed with MS accessories not working with MS games.

    :)

  3. setting up Razer chimaera 5.1 headset on Xbox One

    Hi!

    I have stereo headset from Razer company, model chimaera 5.1. This is wireless headset for Xbox360.

    After bying Xbox One, and bying microsoft headset adapter (official) for xbox one, this headset start working with chat. But buttons on headset adapter not work correctly. Not matter what i'm doing, changing volume of chat or game, in my headset changes
    all volume. If dont use this buttons, game sounds are so loud that i cant hear chat(((

    And buttons on headset dont work correctly (there are butons on headset for
    regulation chat and game volumes). There is the same thing. Like sound getting in with one stream.

    Is there any opportunity to make the headphones work properly with Xbox One?

    Hello Sinne,

    How are you plugging the headset in? Are you plugging it into the controller or directly into the PC? Whichever you're doing, could you try the other and see how you get on?

    Well I plugged in my controller via usb cable and headset into the controller. The mic icon still doesn't light up in game when I speak and I must plug in the mic in game for the icon not to be crossed out, other than that the chat headset worked fine just
    now. Hope it stays that way Xbox One Chat headset not working properly with Forza Horizon 3 :)
