Xbox one controller only works via bluetooth.

One thing I just found out, the Xbox pad works with others when connected with a cable, previously I was using a bluetooth adapter which came with the controller.

Any chance of fixing it to work via bluetooth? As in, Xbox controller via bluetooth, other controller via cable.

Hi,

The 3.5mm headphone jack on Xbox One/Series X|S controllers (including Elite controllers) does not work when connected via Bluetooth. It will only work via USB or the official Xbox wireless adaptor.

I too have a similar problem with my new Xbox One controller. The old one is WI-Fi 2.4GHz only and still works. The newer Xbox One controller can do both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz. When connected to my PC (don't own an Xbox One nor any console) via Bluetooth
(internal, no dongle) it will drop out unexpectedly every couple of days, or so. Not only that, but via Bluetooth, Windows sees it as an "Xbox controller". Via 2.4GHz (have the Xbox dongle) it is seen the same as the old controller, an "Xbox One controller".
Have all updates applied, so that's not the problem. Have both controllers with Amazon Basic Black Aluminum Charging Stand (which comes with the rechargeable battery pack) and it has a good charge when it drops connectivity and easily reconnects if I restart
the computer or remove and then add it via the Bluetooth Setting, so that's not the problem. No other Bluetooth device I have drops connectivity, so that's not the problem. This only leaves the controller itself as the problem. Using the Xbox dongle as recommended
seems the best fix, if you have one. When buying one, be careful to get the right one, as it seems by the reviews I've read that there are a lot of merchants out there selling fake ones.

Xbox Accessories app also do not work with Xbox One S controller connected via Bluetooth !!!

Hi Diabelnyy,

Unfortunately it's not possible to connect your headset via Bluetooth, unless your headset or headphones have built in Bluetooth. If the headset's are Bluetooth capable, then you would need to set them up via your PC's Bluetooth settings, but I'm not sure
if you can have multiple devices connected via Bluetooth at the same time.

You would need to directly connect the headset to your PC via the 3.5 mm audio port. Connecting into the controller will not work unless you are playing on an Xbox One console.

The Xbox wireless controller adapter for PC will not work in trying to connect a headset via Bluetooth.
