## AUDIO HEADSET (USB ONLY)

Considering the wide variety of headsets, controllers, and consoles, we can't promise full audio functionality for every combination, however if you do wish to use a wired headset, the controller must be connected to the Cronus Zen by USB as there is no audio support available over bluetooth. 

***Pro Tip: If you are having issues getting your headset working, first connect your headset to the controller, then connect the controller to your Zen, then connect the Zen to your console.***

**NINTENDO**®** SWITCH: **If using a Switch TV Dock, make sure the 15v power supply is connected or the Zen will not power on. If you are using the Switch in Handheld mode, you'll also need an [OTG USB-C adapter](https://cronus.shop/products/usb-c-otg-adapter).

**Make sure this option is enabled:** System Settings > Controllers and Sensors > Pro Controller Wired Communication: **On**
