Hello, try to update the controller by plugging it into your console. If you're playing with a headset, don't forget to plug in the headset when you're updating. Maybe that'll solve your problem. Let us know

Yes you have to use a cable and if your cable doesn't work try another one.

Hey there martinjennings3,

Thanks for reaching out to the Forums for advice on how to deal with this issue. I can totally understand how this could be pretty strange and bothersome to deal with. I suggest trying the steps outlined in our Wireless Controller Solution.

When you get the chance, give that a shot and let us know if that helped.

Thanks for reading!
