Razer issues with xbox controller

Question

I've attempted to search far and wide, but still haven't been able to solve this issue. When my xbox controller is plugged into my computer (hard wired) my Razer microphone doesn't work as if it detects the xbox controller as the default mic. Ive set the Razer soundcard as default, disabled practically everything else, uninstalled/reinstalled all drivers for controller and headset, but with no luck. I can either use my xbox controller with no microphone, or I can use my microphone and the xbox controller fails tos start

If nothing else helps contact Razer Support who must get it working or replace it during the first year warranty period:
