XBOX wireless controller on Windows 10 - Using 3.5 mm jack for audio

[KewDok]

Hi!
I am connecting my headset to the 3.5 mm jack on the XBOX controller using the wireless adapter in my Surface Book 2. I am able to get audio to one headset just fine, but I am not able to get audio to more than one of the controllers at a time. I notice that the headsets show up as two separate audio out options in Windows. Is there a trick to allow audio to go to both headsets at the same time (workaround etc.)?

Or do I have to get a stereo or chat headset adapter to use more than one headset for audio at a time?

PS, I want to be able to play games with my nephew while my son is sleeping in the next room. Hence the untraditional request.

Are you and your nephew in the same room?

@KewDok when you say headset do you mean headphones?

If so have you tried a simple long Y splitter cable and plugging that directly into the headphone port of the surface book 2?

As that's easier than disabling audio devices everytime you guys want to play games :winktongue:.

I am trying to use the 3.5 mm jack on the Xbox controllers. I know there are other ways of doing it, but I thought it would be a breeze to do.
