So all of the sudden my wireless headset, fairly new only connects to the second port on my 360 and not the main controller, anyone have any suggestions?

have you tried to manually assign it.

yeah, tried and it skips 1....goes 2,3,4,2 and so on....

Ok mine will do that some times, you have to jsut shuffle around resyncing the controller and headset, eventually it should work.

i sure hope that is the problem, just a update bug...  I just bought a new controller, and started having these problems, so i chalked it up to be a mic problem, so i bought a new mic.   same deal...  is there a quick fix, BESIDES having to purchase a wired headset and doing that resyncing mess?

It's a mechanical design flaw in the connector on the controller. I posted about it in a couple threads. Unless you're going to take apart you controller and solder the circuit closed then all you can do is plug in and unplug a wired headset until the switch stops telling the controller a wired one is plugged in. A complete pain that can be undone by just the rumble motors in the controller.

You can fix it permanently with a simple jumper wire and the chatpad and wired mics will still function properly.
