    Xbox Series X Controller Disconnect Issue and Fix That Worked for Me


    I was fortunate enough to pick up an Xbox Series X a few days ago and, like others, I ran into the controller disconnect issue the first night I had the console. My controller would disconnect and wouldn't reconnect until I rebooted the Xbox.

    I noticed it was consistently happening ONLY when I shut off my wireless headset, a Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2. And if I shut off the headset after shutting down the Xbox, the Xbox would power back on. Very annoying.

    It had been a while since I had checked for a Stealth 700 firmware update, so I went ahead and checked. Sure enough, there was one and I installed it.

    I have not had the controller disconnect issue since. I can now shut off the headphones without losing controller connectivity, and when I shut off the Xbox, the headset shuts off automatically shortly after. Everything is now working as expected.

    Just thought I'd share in case it helps others.

    Vanguard Controller issue ...

    Connecting the controller with a USB cable doesn't work,

    Controller still disconnects even with a USB cable connected,

    I have the same issue with Series X using mouse and keyboard for Call of Duty Vanguard.

    I played during the beta and there was no problems with the controller disconnecting but as soon as the game released, the controller disconnects,

    I've tried a Xbox One controller Series X controller, with batteries and a USB cable, and the controllers still disconnects.

    Xbox Series X (Maybe One/One X too) stops recording when controller disconnects

    Thank you for the response but my controller is completely up to date. It actually just happened for the first time again with the xbox one x controller I was using. I think it's built in to the xbox series x/one x/one to stop recording if the controller is disconnected which causes this issue and makes the footage unusable. Not sure if you have a fix for that in particular but if not it seems it will continue to be an issue.

    When will the Xbox Series X Controller Firmware get fixed?

    I'm playing on a PC, this isn't a Forza issue, it's a Windows/Firmware/Compatibility issue, the controller disconnects even if i'm not in any games.
    A lot of people have this issues on PC, for some it works fine in some games, and in others it keeps getting disconnected, and for most it just disconnects regardless of game or not.

    It's been an issue since Xbox One controllers, and day Series X

    DISCONNECTED CONTROLLER X BOX SERIE X WITH BATTERY END CABLE

    Hello, I´m Jamie. an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you.

    I am sorry your facing an issue with the Series X.
    Can you confirm whether it is the controller not connecting to the Series X or the Series X not connecting to the TV?
    Hi jemi thanks for replying sorry for the delay in answering the controller x box series x worked for some time it disconnected a few times then it started to disconnect often practically every time I used it it was not used with the pc and it is unacceptable that things like this happen to me in 2022 it has already happened to me with the x box one 2 times sent for assistance with the x series it no longer works even with the original cable I think you should try to solve the problem once for all maybe redesigning new controllers but this time with a new technology I would be willing to buy it even out of warranty thanks to you soon

    Random 10 second controller disconnects Series X

    A patch to fix controllers disconnecting on the Series X was released some months back. As for the current Alpha build, unfortunately I don't know when that will be released or if it will address the issue at all.
