    Xbox One Controller - Bluetooth audio broken After firmware update


    Yesterday I bought a Xbox One controller to be used on my PC with Windows 10; the first installation went smoothly the controller was fine via bluetooth and Remote Bluetooth audio headphones worked. Then I installed Xbox rotola app following microsoft's
    procedure and updated the controller firmware: update completed successfully, the controller still works but not the audio via Bluetooth; Windows 10 recognizes it as a controller but do not see the audio remote hardware via Bluetooth; if I connect The controller
    via cable audio works, the problem is only via bluetooth; i guess it is not the controller but a driver / firmware issue. I also read on Amazon that other users have encountered the same problem.

    I have already contacted by chat Xbox and Windows Support and they opened practice 1361214831. With them we followed the basic troubleshooting procedures without success. They suggested I write here to get a return from Microsoft as soon as the issue is resolved.

    The controller is great, i hope Microsoft will fix this firmware issue..

    :)

    Firmware update: Lost audio over bluetooth with Xbox one bluetooth controller and Win10

    Hello, today I bought an Xbox One Bluetooth controller for playing with pc. It seems to work well, but after firmware update, the controller has lost the functionality of streaming audio over bluetooth. Before the update, it was possible to use it as audio
    playback device. It would be possible to "unlock" the lost feature or to come back to the previous firmware? I really appreciate any help you can provide. Sorry for my english...
