If your headset's still not working, try updating your Xbox controller's firmware. Connect it via USB and see if there's an update available.

Hot take: Often, it's just a case of a loose wire or the headset not being charged. Double-check and give it another go.

First, make sure your headset is properly plugged in. If it's wireless, check that it's paired with your Xbox. Sometimes the simplest solutions are the best!

Have you checked the headset settings on your Xbox? Go to 'Settings' > 'Devices & accessories' and make sure your headset is selected as the audio input/output.
