Xbox One Stereo Headset Mic Not Working for Party Chat

Sometimes this happens to me.I find if you sign in with the Kinect before turning your controller on it tends to happen.The Xbox has signed you in but doesn't quite pair you with the controller,so it doesn't let you talk in party
chat with a headset in the controller.All you have to do is go to the sign-in screen and select "choose this person" with your controller on yourself.You don't need to sign out.Now the Xbox should associate you as the one holding the controller.I think the
Kinect is supposed to figure that out itself but it's a little buggy.

 

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE OUTRAGE!!! Microsoft im getting tired of this. There should be no trouble shooting what so ever had to be done. I paid 500 *** euro for my product and IM DISGUSTED , with the quality and the support. Its pointless contacting your support
team because they dont have the power to tell us the truth ie MICROSOFT IS THE PROBLEM. Whats worse is you wont even talk to us, i understand you cant talk to us here directly. But it woUld be nice for you to tell you're customers you understand there is an
issue. All of us are trying god knows what to fix a problem we cant, and more than likely doing more damage in the future. Im talking about the in box headset, that flat out does not work FOR EVERYONE!. Its out more than half a year and the problem has been
there since the start, and YES i got a first addition REGRETTABLY. I get update after update every week of new features and improvements to the xbox one or xbox live experience LMAO its an experience alright (experiencing problems). But how about instead of
all them updates yous are working on. TRY WORKING ON THE BIGGEST ISSUE YOUS HAVE. THE SO CALLED PLUG AND PLAY STANDARD HEADSET THAT COMES WITH THE CONSOLE. Dont get me wrong I LOVE xbox 360, its social style gaming made me a gamer. I cant socialize on me xbox
one

 

What a surprise. COMPLETELY IGNORED.

 

I used to have this problem all the time: the Kinect would "override" my headset when it was enabled and I couldn't use my headset at all. Disabling the Kinect via Settings has fixed the problem every time, which kind of sucks because I (apparently) paid
extra for the Kinect and now I have to turn it off to use a basic online feature.

 

I just had a issue with the headset that comes with the xbox one. it was not working. i was in a party with my brother playing tomb raider. then my mic just cut out and did not work. Figured out how to fix it for now. I had to shut down the whole system
and then pull the power cord and then plug it back in and then start it all up again and then it started working again. Hope this helps for some ppl its a fix but not sure for how long.

 

Bought the stereo headset

Out of box: Great headphones, ZERO microphone functionality.

Still nothing from a single *** at Microsoft.

You know Microsoft told me that Godaddy is the reason I have IMAP errors on 12 different pcs with their accounts. 20 mb limit or something. They refuse to admit its them. Godaddy has no mb limit.

This thread is just an example of what we are used to and what we expect from a company that only wanta to tale our money.

 

At least address this Microsoft!

 

Any joy lads?

I bought the Xbox adapter.

Applied the update.

I can hear game sounds. But I cannot hear my friends talk.

They can hear me.

Which makes it more annoying.

 

when im in party chat i can hear my friends but when i talk through my mic my friends cant hear or even when im in game chat ive up dated the controller and done everything right to make it but it still doesnt work
