    XBox One X doesn't recognize any headsets


    My son got an Xbox One X in November and it has never recognized a headset. We have tried different headsets, all compatible and it has the same issue. These same headsets work fine on his Xbox One at his dad's house so the problem isn't the headset. Any
    ideas?

    :)

    Xbox One X doesn't recognize any headsets

    My son has an Xbox One X at my house and a regular Xbox One at his dad's house. Headsets work fine with the console at his dad's house but the one at my house has never recognized any compatible headset we've had. It has been this way since the first day
    we got it. I made sure the controller software is on the newest version and it is. Any thoughts on why the One X might not work when the One does. Could it have anything to do with my TV not supporting 4K?

    Hey

    Thanks for responding!

    The next thing I would try is the console factory reset.

    Before we do that we want to make sure you know your email and password for your Microsoft account because you'll

    need to redownload your profile(s) back onto the Xbox and reconnect to your network / wifi .

    Make sure you go with the option "Keep my games and apps" when resetting the console.

    Also, you do have the option to send in your Xbox for repair since you're under the 1 year manufacturer warranty.

    Let me know if that helps!

    Xbox One X doesn't recognize any headsets

    Hi,

    We are having the exact same issue but what is more frustrating is that we have two controllers and what with out Hyper X headset, but now have stopped working. So I believe this has nothing to do with the headset and is a system bug. I have been in touch
    with Xbox about this issue and they said they are aware this is a know issue and are trying to resolve is but at this stage they really have no answers.

    So we are left with headsets that dont work and frustrated kids who cannot chat with their friends.

    Just fix the bug Xbox!!

    Hello
    pvr999
    ,

    Below is the official link on troubleshooting that type of issue:

    Xbox One Chat Headset troubleshooting

    I don't believe it has anything to do with the 4K..

    It might be an actual issue with that particular Xbox one X controller where the headset connects into the

    3.5 mm jack. If possible, you might want to try another Xbox one X controller (if you have one or if you can borrow one) and

    connect the headset to that one

    to see if it works.. that'll tell you whether or not the issue is actually with the controller.. and since it's an Xbox one X, it'll

    definitely still be under the 1 year manufacturer warranty for you to be able to replace the controller.

    I hope that helped!

    I followed the process for resetting the console to the factor defaults and it did not fix the problem. I would like to send the Xbox in for repair. Please advise how to go about that.

    Thanks..
