How to use PS4 controller's audio output via Bluetooth on PC? - Dj with mixer controller in night club

When the PS4 controller is connected via the USB cable to the PC, it can be used as an audio device if I plug my headphones into the controller.

Is it somehow possible to use them as an audio device, when I connect the controller via Bluetooth? They can output the sound transmitted via Bluetooth when they're used on a PS4, I would guess that it is somehow possible.

If not via plain Bluetooth, might it work with the USB adapter made by Sony?

Important: It is not meant for remote play. I want to play PC games with it.

Thank you! :)



Best Answer

According to anecdotal evidence by a reddit user and an Amazon review of the adapter, it only works with the official Sony adapter.

There are other Amazon reviews mentioning the default Windows sound changing when it is plugged in; I would take this to be further evidence the adapter works.
