We just got a Sony STR-DN1060 receiver along with a XBR75x850c TV. We have an Xbox connected to the DN1060. We cannot seem to get sound through an Xbox headset, regardless of whether we plug it into the TV or receiver. Does anyone have ideas as to what we're doing wrong? Thanks.
 
Don't the Xbox headsets plug directly into the Xbox controlers?
 
@Littlemike The headphones (Turtle Beach X12) have two plugs. One plugs into the Xbox controller directly and this is for the mic on the headphones. The second plugs into the Audio Out. Prior to getting the receiver, we connected this second one directly to one of the Audio Out jacks on the TV. However, we don't get sound plugging it into any of the receiver outputs. My guess is that we need to change a setting on the TV and/or receiver, as the cable connections seem pretty straightforward.

Our workaround for now has been to simply bypass the receiver, using an HDMI cable to connect the Xbox directly to the TV. But it would be nice for everything to run through the receiver.
