How to Fix Microphone/Headset on PS4

- In this video, I show how to fix your microphone/headset on PS4. I go over a few things to make sure it is working correctly. This should work for both headsets and earbuds. In device settings, check that your mic is connected and your device is set. Turn your mic volume up. Check all cables and make sure they are flush. Take out and put back in the cable a few times very quickly. Make sure the mic toggle switch is not muted. If these do not work, try a hard reset by holding down the power button until you hear 2 beeps, wait till it turns off completely. Take out power cable for 30 seconds. If all of these steps do not work, try a different controller/headset.

When I click all audio I can’t hear anything
Hello please look at my comet i need help the headset I have is hyper x cloud ps4
I still cant hear for shit
After almost a year of not being able to be heard through the mic but hearing others, we finally came across your video explaining how to use earbuds and insert them a few times and THAT FIXED IT! My 10 yr old son and I (his mom) couldn’t be more thrilled that it’s finally working and he can play using the mic with his friends again! We can’t thank you enough for putting this video out and saving our sanity! We were almost ready to purchase another console after no one could seem to figure out what was wrong with it. You saved our sanity and our bank account! Thank you from the bottom of our very happy hearts!!! ♥️♥️♥️

So this started at 9 years old, wow wish I be had a PS4 bought by mummy at that age
so wholesome
Well that’s long
I can’t talk but I can hear wtf this is so confusing

Cheesit-sisy I left my mic muted for 30 minutes then unmuted it and then it worked. I don’t get it at all but it works now which is good
Sameee
Thanks mate. Just bought this headset for my 8 yo son and we could not hear anything through them despite 10 minutes of mucking about with the cables. However, upon following your instructions he's happily gaming away and I'm loving the silence of the living room.
Haha
Dude on this day you saved the life of a head set.
No cap

Fixes for the A10 brand new out of the box (troubleshooting)
1) Make sure it's not muted this particular mic you must flip the mic downward, since upwards means it's muted. (Also make sure your headset settings are set too all audio and not chat audio in the ps4 settings)
2) restart the ps4 with the mic plugged in, as well as check for any updates that your ps4 may have. (If this dosent fix follow the next steps)
3)make sure the ps4 is recognizing the mic input through the settings if it's not, simply unplug it from the controller. Then plug it in a little more than halfway, not fully then once it's recognized slowly push it in fully. (If it recognizes but won't pick up the input follow the next step)
4)Once the mic is recognized allowing you to hear sound as well as see your mic active but dosent pick up you talking. Simply push hard af (atleast five pounds of pressure on the 3.5mm side that connects directly into the headphone itself) make sure you are in a party and if you think you are pressing hard enough hold rhe pressure and start talking in a party chat to see if it starts lighting up. If it isn't you arnt pushing it hard enough, so try a little harder (I was scared it was going to break the cable with the amount of force I had to put but it ended up working) once you've seen it starting to light up you can let go of the 3.5mm jack and finally enjoy your brand new mic that you just bought.
(Step four worked for me after I had to troubleshoot all the other options and decided to share this fix due to being pissed that I had bought a brand new microphone thinking It was broken)
If step four dosent fix the issue I'd recommend using a q tip with 90% rubbing alcohol (if you have 70% make sure to clean it twice with a dry q tip that way you dont damage the jax inside of the controller and get rid of any excess alcohol)
Hopefully this helps I was in the same boat buying a brand new pair of a10 ps4 headphones only to think they were broken from the start, eventually got pissed and pushed super hard on the 3.5 cable connected to the mic itself held it there and talked into a party to my suprise it actually picked up my input, I was scared if i Le go that it wouldnt work due to how hard I was pressing I in and it wouldn't budge any further but to my suprise it worked)
Ps never buy these headphones they are an absolute shit product considering i had to troubleshoot them straight out of a brand new box, took me thirty minutes of tutorial fixed only to find out none of them actually solved the problem other than step 4. For a sixty dollar mic you're better off getting skullcandy for 10$ atleast they'll work out of the box and you don't have to troubleshoot a brand new product.
What do I do if I only hear from the left side?
The problem is that no one can hear me through them. This just puts the audio in the ear. I'm still having problems with talking
Me too

The problem with me is i can't hear through my headphones. 😔

Try turning on the headset volume from the headset itself from the mic on and off thing I was about to get a refund until I tried that and it worked just fine
@silent_greenz try my method dude
Try going to settings > Device > Audio Devices > Output to Headphones and switch it from chat only to all audio.
Did that work?
Glitchy The Noob yeah thanks bro
Only 1 minute and 29 seconds and you saved yet another headset from death. Thank you
Boys my headset is plugged in, on and everything but when I go to adjust my audio mix because my friends say they can’t hear me, it sounds like a demon on the headset, I can’t get it under control!
PLEASE HELP!
Sketti That’s what’s happening to me idk what to do
Same here did you guys end up fixing it?
ThaBigMeanMarine nah bro😫
Sketti fuckkkk Ahahah
ThaBigMeanMarine I know man it’s awful, I’m probably going to resort to just buying the new vantage 2...😤
I love how every time you say "headset" the auto subs translate it to "hits it" . Great video, helped me out!
Literally just bought a new headset and was talking to some mates when all of a sudden my mic stops working. I didn't change any settings or press any of the buttons on the headset, the headset doesn't have a mute function. It just stopped working...
Me too
It's amazing there's not one specific video for what I'm trying to find I literally just had to stumble around and figure it out myself. Somebody make a video on how you get the audio from the TV through your earphones or ear buds only just that so many people just want a video showing you how to do that. I couldn't find any video from the US at least that showed me how to do this.
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH literally bought my headset last week and I was so upset cause i thought they were broken but you helped so so so much
which one worked
Yh same here

Hey guys, if you're still struggling on this problem and some of his tips don't work but you think it's a controller problem, go to your settings and turn off your PS4 controller then turn it back on. Hope that helps

Hey i need help for some reason i dont know how to explain it but even when my microphone is off or muted my ps4 is like outputting random sounds like the peeping you hear when you Press x in the menu of the ps4 and i dont know how to disable the function where the ps4 outputs its noises into the game
Very uncreative Name I have the same problem
do u just mute it or do u mute yourself in the party screen??
Have you found the solution?
Let this comment be number 1 if everything else in this video didn’t work. So I was having the same problem and all I had to do was unplug my controller from the charger and it worked again. Idk how but try it, it worked for me.
If anyone still has this issue hold the playstation button, go to sound and devices, and make sure “disable game chat audio” is OFF. I accidently enabled it a week ago and just now realized, it basically makes it so you cant hear anyone in game and they cant hear you.
Thank you so much bro you saved me 50 dollars lol
Omg I was also muted lol
Omg holy shit that first method of unplugging and plugging in ur mic fixed my mic oh my god thank uu
Glad I could help!!
Damn. I was getting pissed lol. Thankyou had to switch it to all audio
It also helped me
Yeah!!
You must be that dumb too not try that at the start 🤣
When I plug it in, for input device it still says none.
Same
Me too. I'm on a ps4 500gb with a k1b headset.
plug ur headset in while muted, that worked for me.
Omg bro thank you i threw away a dozen different headsets before this video yo you are a life saver thank you
I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you rn
I could talk and people hear me but I can’t hear them and it’s a new mic plz help
Exactly the problem I have
I think I just threw my headset to hard
You must have some long, dark nights in the Maritimes to figure this stuff out.
The pull out and in 4 times method worked for me! Thank you! :D
Bruh thats bs
Heya, did you try pulling it out & putting it back in 4+ times? It seems stupid I know, but it was the only thing that got my wired headset mic to work with my PS4. It must do some kind of of forced electrical resyncing.
It worked for me😂that’s pretty stupid tbh
@@thecdgboi2270 nah it worked for me aswell
It didnt work for me i ended up having children
whenever im playing with no mic it keeps saying headset connected and then i cant hear anything then it disconnects and it keeps happening
same
It started working for me when you got to the part of pulling it out one notch and pulling it back it repeatedly three times. Thank you!

B that’s because your earbuds probably don’t have a mic only certain ones do
You just earned a sub, saved me from breaking this brand new headset 🤣
Still having this issue. Contacted Sony they told me nothing they can do and dont know why its happening. Funny since their 8.00 update this happened
Something new I found is that when trying to adjust mic level it says to turn side note off on headset. Which it is. However, ps4 never said that before
I was about to buy a new headset, turned out my audio was legit set for on chat audio
Youve just saved my headsets life mate. Much appreciated
I’m on all audio did everything like you said I test my mic level and I can see it moving but I can’t hear myself or the party nor anyway sound from the PS4 game and all that
The mic is not the problem its the earpiece
