Xbox Wireless Headset audio balance (left ear cup dial) not working on Console (SOLVED)

Alright. Be sure the headset volume isn't turned all the way down. The dial on the outside of the left earcup adjusts the audio balance between game and chat audio. Be sure the dial isn't rotated completely in one direction, as this will effectively mute either game or chat audio.

Open Chat mixer and make sure that the Mute all other sounds isn't checked (I use Do nothing on my consoles).

There is also an option missing in your Headset audio section which you need to check if you are "Using a headset that uses HDMI or optical audio out". The part in quote marks in last sentence is the missing option. Try changing to Windows Sonic for Headphones
to see if that adds the missing option. If it still doesn't show up then maybe try changing HDMI audio to Bitstream out too.

Check the Game volume on your headset left ear cup. If that is all the way down then you won't hear game sounds. Chat volume is adjusted on the right ear cup.

Good luck!

Keep in mind: bluetooth headsets do not work on any Xbox One console. No console has bluetooth functionality.

There are plenty of wireless headsets available for Xbox One, but they do usually cost upwards of $80-200. Typically, it's going to be a pair of surround-sound headphones with a mic, and it connects to the Xbox through a receiver that either plugs into the
console's optical audio port or USB.

There are no wireless chat-only headsets (with one speaker to the ear) as far as I know. The closest match I can recommend for you would be the

PDP Afterglow AG 9.

Hopefully they expand general bluetooth accessory and audio support with next gen - BUT, as a person with massively pierced ears and glasses, I'm pretty sure you should be able to find some regular headsets that work for you comfortably. I use the wireless
Plantronics Rig 800s, and they are super comfortable, have great audio quality for both chat and game audio (including the fact they come with a Dolby Atmos headphones license). The problem with single ear headsets is they generally only provide chat audio,
and cut off the directionality of your hearing by blocking off one ear to game audio. I would just try some more headsets to find one that's comfortable for you.

No cables at all

No mix amps on the way

No receiving boxes

Lightweight not like Astros A50 brick ear cups

Steelseries Arctis 9x

100% full wireless

Get them out the box sync like you sync the controller and boom quality wireless audio on the fly!!
