@garionorb Can I check on your exact audio setup? If you have details of your PS5's audio settings that might help too.
@bentl78 Hey, do you happen to have a link to any specific Reddit posts reporting this. Every bit of info helps.
Thanks.
This is still an issue - with my PS5 set to use A/V Amplifier, channels set to 5.1 and a 2.1 sony ht nt-5 soundbar with accompanying wireless surround speakers (which is a total of 5.1 channels including the virtual center).
With 5.1 mode audio is being played through the wrong channels, and if I switch to stereo mode everything is "mostly" fine, but ambient dialogue and sound is way too quiet and gunfire is extremely loud.
Bypassing the sound bar entirely and playing through my TV speakers the sound works fine (but obviously sounds way worse, because TV speakers).
If there are additional details I can provide to help you pin this issue down let me know, but it seems like there's enough evidence in this thread across a multitude of users that the issue is fairly clear. Thanks!
