Why Is My Xbox Microphone Not Working?
If you're using a headset, make sure it's fully plugged into the controller and not just halfway in. That can easily cause the mic not to work.

First thing, check if it's muted or the mic switch is off. Happens to the best of us!
A quick hot take: sometimes it's just the headset that's faulty. Try a different headset to see if the problem persists.
Check the Xbox privacy settings. Sometimes the settings restrict voice communication without you knowing it.
From my experience, updating the controller firmware can solve mic issues. Just connect to your Xbox and check for updates.
