    Xbox Wireless Headset sound issues in Microsoft games (PC)


    So this is a known issue, that when you connect via official Xbox dongle, with Xbox Wireless Headset, your sound starts cutting out in games with spatial audio. The problem is MS doesn't allow to turn off that spatial audio in their games, so this results in their games being unplayable with their hardware. What the actual hell? Is there a way to force headset to not use spatial audio (System>Sound doesn't help, because the game still lags like crazy), or force Halo Infinite at least to not use spatial?

    :)

    Oh no, I mean. Bluetooth 4.2, Bluetooth 5.0 etc.
    Unfortunately Wireless Headset can be a bit tricky or not work as intended on PCs with a lower Bluetooth version.

    I was checking a similar thread, it seems this issue is solved using the Xbox Wireless adapter or connecting directly the headset via USB, on PC the wireless headset have some issues when you want to use sound and microphone at the same time

    Thanks for getting back with us. Have you already attempted to turn off Spatial audio for your wireless headset? To access the spatial audio button, click the "start button" followed by "sound" and then select the audio device that you want to configure. Once you have selected your audio device if you scroll to the bottom, you should see an area for spatial audio where you have an option to the right to turn this feature off. I would also recommend turning off "Enhanced Audio" as well just to make sure that there is no interference at all.

    I have the same problem and it is quite annoying. I could not find a solution either. Room sound options are disabled.
