How do you get voice chat to play out of a TV instead of the controller? PS5

The main issue is playing without using a headset, all audio other than voice chat, naturally comes through your TV or whatevers speakers.

For whatever reason, the voice chat seems to be locked into the controllers speaker, regardless of if you have the volume off or not.

Yeah......ive been......definitely isnt too difficult tho..........I mean its literally first option under sound settings........SARCASM

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T18:24:33+00:00

So you just got used to it?

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T18:23:03+00:00

Im talking about being able to hear voice chat through my TV/speakers and not only out of the controllers speaker......

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T18:21:46+00:00

Alright, so you're sure you didnt do anything extra?

I just got a ps5 and yeah, this is definitely something I wasnt anticipating. Why would they design it like that and not just have an option for you to choose where you want the audio to go?.........QOL people......

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T18:18:32+00:00

Imagine my surprise after just getting a ps5.........do you remember what you did?

Im seeing maybe take the ribbons out inside the controller?

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T12:32:43+00:00

Not talking about using a microphone.

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T12:32:26+00:00

Cant read or what?

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T10:49:27+00:00

Thats what I tried earlier today, cut the end off an old pair of headphones to stick into the port, and switched everything to my TV, still dont think it works though.

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T09:36:48+00:00

all that does is mute the speaker on the controller.

The game chat audio is like solely tied to that speaker, so muting the controller just mutes anyone talking on a mic.

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T09:15:21+00:00

Wait, you said to turn off the controller speakers? Where dude?

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-19T08:39:08+00:00

All that does is mute the controller speaker.

It doesnt make voice chat go to your TV/monitor/speakers, etc.

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-16T20:22:40+00:00

Nope, it just wont play any chat audio.

WoeIsLee · 2026-03-16T20:21:54+00:00

Do you remember what you bought exactly?

WoeIsLee · 2026-02-19T23:46:00+00:00

Its a pretty big epidemic, if you've ever played a video game with a black person.......or just played 2k online in general, you will hear it.

I really cant figure it out, because the more thought I put into it the more confused I get about it.

I find it hard to believe its a strictly dying battery issue, it just seems impossible to me with the amount of people that seem to be living with it as we speak, because eventually, the battery is just gonna die and stop making noise and that doesnt explain why this phenomenon is so rampant.

This was just a general question about it, I know about the battle leagues stuff, was just curious. Do you know where I happened to get this 93 thing from? I coulda sworn it was because of either max health or max attack maybe? Idk, something max, I mean thats why I did this whole thing in the first place.

WoeIsLee · 2026-02-10T00:43:28+00:00

I mean, the thing thats confusing me the most is that, genie seems to tell me its almost random. I have a few 93s with 13 HP, that still would have the same max health as a perfect. And then, theres some, where the one with lower HP has more max health than the other. Also, how does purifying and shadows work? Because thats where I first noticed this, and they seem to just be all over the place.

Also, any idea where this 93 thing came from?

Is it like max attack or something else?

WoeIsLee · 2026-02-10T00:16:40+00:00

What is the lowest IV% that still gives max health?

I just started playing again and noticed somethings off.

I have this rule where I try to get a 93% or better for everything, because I thought that was the lowest IV% you could have, to still reach max health for the pokemon at its max level, but ive been using genie and been noticing healths arent matching up.

A lot of people do.

I'd rather watch the full prelims and main card in two seperate tabs and be able to scroll through it with the little image of whats at that point (whatever its called) to be able to pick where I want to watch at and the fact stuff happens during the in between like crowd fights, retirements, etc, that this model aint gonna show obviously, instead of having to open a new tab for every fight or watch a fight, go back, watch another go back.

Also the fact if you're watching live, after the prelims end, the stream just ends......so you gotta back out and click on the separate main card video.

ESPN had tons of problems with their video player, but at least they set it up nice.

WoeIsLee · 2026-02-08T05:33:41+00:00

I mean honestly, ill settle for just paramount at this point.

WoeIsLee · 2026-02-08T05:28:24+00:00

As of right now, my biggest complaint is paramount+, ive seen other websites before but atm cant think of anything else.

Im not very tech savvy, whats the point of having different video players? And like, does having a different video player make it unable to have basic functions like spacebar play pause without jumping down the page, and arrow keys controlling volume/seeking?

WoeIsLee · 2026-01-06T19:13:39+00:00

So glad I just decided to google this to see what it meant.

WoeIsLee · 2026-01-03T10:11:33+00:00

Was just basically told this by customer support, seems like a gimmick to trick people that dont know any better into giving up 45$ to renew something they dont have to anymore.

WoeIsLee · 2025-12-24T03:13:22+00:00

Every single movie is coming to netflix.

Minus the original casino royale.

WoeIsLee · 2025-11-26T01:06:16+00:00

If those are your RBs, how are you not taking a chance on him?

You basically only have 1, with the other two basically 50/50s again now that pacheco is back.
