okay so i found a pair of headphones that work for fortnite. the mic works on it, my gf can hear me. i plugged the headphones into my controller but i can’t hear her or the game through them, only through my actual tv. what’s going on? why isn’t the sound from my gfs mic and the fortnite music going through my headphones and instead my actual tv speakers?
