Feel free to comment if this worked for you and/or what you are listening to -_- i need some ideas to listen to

Requirements:


    Xbox One and a computer

    2 skype profiles (One of which is connected to your account)

    Skype on the Xbox One and Computer

    Open Broadcaster Software (found [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] )

    Headphones

    Media Player (Internet explorer or Firefox (Chrome does not work ))



Steps:

    Open OBS and create a new scene.

    Within the scene, create a standard "window capture" for your media player, I will be using an internet browser and youtube.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
This is what my settings look like:^
    Now hit preview stream (You do not have to actually stream for this to work)

    Open up skype for the computer and sign into the account that is not linked to the Xbox One profile. (Make sure you have added each other)

    Click Tools>Options or use Ctrl+ to bring up the settings menu.

    Click Video Settings and click the dropdown box next to "Select Webcam". Then select "XSplitBroadcaster"

    Now click the "Audio Settings" tab and make sure your settings are:

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
**Note: names for the speakers may very based on what is installed.
    After applying the settings, start playing the music you want to listen to.

    To hear it on the Xbox One, just go to the Xbox One skype app and call your second account and answer it on the computer.

    Now you should be jamming out to your favorite songs whithout snapping and taking up some of your screen.


Flaws:

    Due to the setup, if you get too loud near the mic and its not muted (only external mics), the music will start to turn down untill the noise is gone. I recommend either muting the external mic or playing in another room in which the noise levels wont affect it.

    Cant chat in a party or ingame. I recommend having them join the skype call and mute the music bot.

    This is just a temporary fix untill the next update that releases the playing music without snapping feature.


If you do make a video or share this in any way, please do not take credit for it and make sure not to use it for trolling -_-

Apparently, after multiple attempts of research I have found out the following things:
    If you speak into your xbox mic, it decreases the volume of the music for a bit

    You do not need to actually broadcast for the music to play
