If you’re playing a game on PC using an Xbox controller connected wirelessly using the Xbox Wireless Adapter dongle, and then plugging a headphone from the audio jack, have you found the audio skips and cuts out?
If you’re having this issue there’s possibly one solution to the problem. Turn off spatial audio.
Spatial audio settings like Dolby Atmos for Windows apparently don’t work well over the Xbox Wireless Adapter dongle, and if you experience audio skips where the audio cuts out ever so often, seemingly like it’s stuttering, then turning off spatial audio setting might do the trick.
On Windows 11, you can turn this off by:
- Clicking on the volume settings on the system tray (lower right side of the screen
- Click on “select sound output” icon
- The Spatial Sound option should be visible, and while heaving headphones connected, turn that off.
