I have a a Wireless XBox Controller X Series connected via Bluetooth (no wireless dongle) to my Win10 PC. I can play games fine, yet I cannot see a new audio device.
Connecting the audio jacket with a headphone won't play any audio when on Bluetooth.
If I connect it via USB-C the sounds plays fine and the audio device is discovered as Headphones XBox Controller.
Is there something I can do to get sound being played through the jack? Is my device broken or is it not supposed to work via Bluetooth connection?

I used my old Xbox Wireless Adapter, and when I connect my XBox Controller through it instead of Bluetooth, I finally get sound to play wirelessly.
Apparently, sound playback is unfortunately not supported through Bluetooth.
Also on Reddit I found this statement:
When your controller is connected via Bluetooth, audio devices are not supported. To use a headset, connect your controller directly to your PC by using a USB cable or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10, or connect your audio device directly to your PC.
The reddit comment linked to this as source but I could not find that statement on there on the time of this writing.
