Xbox Series X Mic Issues (still)

When will this be fixed? why cant we get any formal talk about this? its been 3 months and I still cant use my mic.

If my mic is plugged in, I cant hear anyone but they can hear me. Unplugged, I can hear everyone just fine. As long as Apex is running, I cant even hear messsages I record to send to friends through the xbox friend list until I force close apex, and then everything magically works just fine again. Mic works fine in every other game

PLEASE GOD fix this. Im so tired of not being able to communicate with my team

I see you had a response in the other thread about this here. It would be best to continue the discussion in that thread. I'm going to lock this thread so we just have one going for this topic. Thanks!

Hey, @Maxiwithwings

There are some potential resolutions for this here. Can you try those out and let me know if you still have this issue? Thanks!

@EA_Aljoreplied to you in a dif thread, ill copy and paste it here to make things easier

"None of those work. I've tried literally everything, different controllers, headsets, updating, rolling them back etc.

If im in Apex and send a message to a friend on my friend list, i see the wav form but cant hear anything... if i leave game chat while Apex is still open and move to party chat, I can then hear the message I just recorded just fine.

Basically whatever Apex is doing when I'm in "game chat" or the game is running, it shuts my headsets audio off so I cant hear anything. Once I go back to party chat everything is perfectly fine. Mic audio is up, everything is fine on my end.

this has been 3 months now."
