What is the proper way to hook up a typical dual 3.5mm headset to a PS4 and be able to chat and hear game sounds at the same time?
My previous PS3 setup was perfect. I have a PC360 headset, and a Marantz HT receiver with Dolby Headphone built in. I used the Marantz headphone jack for game audio, and then used a 3.5-usb adapter to the PS3 for chat. It worked great.
Now the PS4, I cant seem to get anything working correctly. I can still get full surround when I plug into the Marantz receiver, but I cant seem to get chat to work. When I plug the PC360s mic cord into the USB adapter, then into the PS4, I can see that the mic works, but I cant hear anyone. Probably because the PS4 is now capable of pushing game audio through the USB.
For me this doesn't work. I want the PS4 to output chat to my headphones, which are receiving game sound via HDMI, NOT Usb. This was how the PS3 worked just fine.
If anyone has any advice please let me know!
Thank you.
