Xbox One Problems with microphone

ItsTriicky x · Oct 9, 2016

In the past week 2 of my microphones have stopped working out of nowhere. I feel like my controller might have destroyed both headsets. Is there anyone else who has had this happen?

Microphone problems with Xbox One Party

I'm actually having the same problem since the update. Party chat, both in game (Neverwinter) and Xbox's Party Chat app, disconnect my mic on my headset. The headset and mic both work in party chat before someone joins but as soon as someone connects with
me they hear me for only a second and then it disconnects my mic. It's not muted. It works fine in Skype. I've tried partying with different users. I've tried updating the controller and headset adapter but no updates available. I've tried different controllers.
I've tried different headsets as well and the only headset that will work is the crappy one that came with the Xbox. I've hard reset the console. I've gone into every setting imaginable and still no go. Any help would be immensely appreciated.

Good morning, yes its happened to me with 2 headsets, but right now im using a HandsFree from my cell phone, and works like a charm, i have like a year working like this without a problem

Yep, it just destroyed my Astro TR and only sound works and also destroyed 2 pairs of phone headsets.

That generic support doesn't really apply here. The problem is with a PC microphone, not an Xbox One microphone. The Xbox App on PC detects the mic and it works if I start a party via the app, but it doesn't work in any capacity on the Xbox One for parties
or game chat.

I asked EB games about the adaptor and they told me i dont need it with the controller that i have.

I have tgen gone to my $2 shoo and bought some cheap earphones with microphone in the wire.

It works.

I cant explain why the headset still wont work.

Frustrating !!

cheers.

Hi Brad,

I spoke to EB games and they told me I do not need the adaptor because the controller already has the 3.5 mm jack for the headset.

I am back to square one !

Ill keep trying,

Cheers

Hi Chris,

Your welcome, hope it will work for you. This has been an issue a lot as of late, and they cant figure out what is going on.

Thanks,

Brad

Hi Chris,

That would be the adapter you need. The headset will plug into that. With some third party headsets the volume will be blacked out.

Thanks,

Brad
