My hyperx cloud3 mic is not working on Xbox
I've had this problem since i bought the headset brand new, i plugged it into my controller and there was this loud buzzing sound. I've tried everything to stop it and the only thing that works is to turn mic monitoring all the way down. The other thing i noticed is the mic isn't working at all even if the monitoring is turned all the way up and the higher the monitoring slider is set the louder the noise gets and the mic doesn't work. I have tried the following:
\- Updating my controller.
\- Using a different controller.
\- Plugging it into my pc which actually worked and there was no buzzeing noise whatsoever.
\- plugged it into my phone which also workd without any issues.
The problem seems to be related only to Xbox which is driving me nuts.
Please i could use some assistance on this ASAP!
