One of the challenges when it comes to switching gaming setups from the Windows world to Linux, is fully-featured hardware support.

The Xbox Wireless Headset + official dongle does a decent job with a lot of bang for the buck. However, It’s not (yet) supported by XONE or any other driver. I can connect it via bluetooth, but then it just sounds dull - no surprise!

That’s why I’m now looking for a new headset which is approved by the community. It must offer decent (surround-)sound in games.

    Steelseries Arctis 1 for sure. Hits all the right spots and is reasonably priced.

    The connection is made through a usb c dongle but I prefer it that way because it lets me be use bluetooth for controllers instead. Also has a detachable mic and a headset jack.

      I was pleasantly surprised to find that chatmix worked properly with my arctis 7s USB receiver.
