So i just got my Astro A40's, I mainly use my PC, however on the odd occasion i use my Xbox One.

Is there a way i can configure my Mix-amp to work with the PC and Xbox, so i can have Audio out and Mic in to the PC AND have xbox audio and mic in for party chat, at the same time, without changing around any cables? i want to set this mix-amp up with both and just leave it be, as it stands at the moment ive got the USB into the PC, for Audio out and mic, then the optical into the xbox, but this leaves me without party chat for the xbox??

thanks!

You didn't mention this in the post, but out of curiosity do you have a cable that runs from the Xbox One controller to the Mixamp?

When I first got my Astros, this wasn't explained to me. If you don't have that cable, getting one should fix your problem.

I just tested this out with my PC, Xbox One, and Mixamp. I got it to work, but I noticed that the mic was barely picking up my voice. So this could be a similar problem that you are having, if you have the previously mentioned cable.
