Hey guys, I've replied to quite a few topics discussing how they have situations where:
They can't turn on Party Chat
Not hearing the other person after joining the party
Getting echo when another person talks
Not recognized by Kinect when you talk
Party chat audio comes out of TV despite having a chat headset connected

-NOTE-
I did NOT see any posts addressing how to fix these issues so I'm here to post about them. If there are any posts on how to fix this, I will delete this is you provide me the link for proof!

They can't turn on Party Chat:
Solution 1: Have everyone in the party test their Xbox Live connection.

Someone in your party might have a Network Address Translation (NAT) problem. To find out, have everyone test their connection. Heres how:
1.Press the Xbox button to go to the Home screen.
2.Press the Menu button on the controller.
3.Select Settings.
4.Select Network.

Solution 2: Restart your Xbox One console.
1.Press the Xbox button to go to the Home screen.
2.Press the Menu button on your controller.
3.Select Settings.
4.Select Power & startup.
5.Select Turn Xbox off.
6.Restart your Xbox by pressing the Xbox button on the console.


Not hearing the other person after joining the party:
If youre not hearing the other person after joining their party, try these tips:
Check that your privacy settings allow communication with everyone.
Unmute or unblock the person youre trying to chat with. To unmute, go to Party chat and do the following: 1.Expand the party roster.
2.Select the person that you want to unmute.
3.Select Unmute.

Check that you have joined party chat from within the party window.


Getting echo when another person talks:
If youre getting a lot of echo and are using Kinect as the speech input device, youll want to run through Kinect calibration.
1.Press the Xbox button to go to the Home screen.
2.Press the Menu button on the controller.
3.Select Settings.
4.Select Kinect.
5.Select Kinect does not hear me.
6.Follow the on-screen guide to recalibrate your Kinect.


Not recognized by Kinect when you talk:
If youre not seeing the green Kinect orb animate when you talk, you may have Kinect chat turned off. Connect your Xbox One Chat Headset or try these steps:
1.Press the Xbox button to go to the Home screen.
2.Press the Menu button on the controller.
3.Select Settings.
4.Select Kinect.
5.Select Use Kinect microphone for chat.

Note This is a system-wide setting, so turning it on here enables the Kinect microphone for games, Skype, and party chat.


Party chat audio comes out of TV despite having a chat headset connected:
If youre hearing party chat through your TV speakers even after connecting a chat headset, you may need to re-associate your controller with your profile. Simply follow these steps:
1.Press the Xbox button to go to the Home screen.
2.Select your gamerpic in the upper-left corner of the screen.
3.Locate your profile and select Choose this person.
