Good morning Audio is a topic I don't quite understand. My idea would be to put the PC sound + the Ps5 sound on a pair of headphones. I know that there is an adapter from Astro that splits the audio signal. But I don't necessarily want to buy an Astro headset. I have tried to read up on various sites. But I don't know if it works that way. My current point of view: Since the Ps5 has neither an optical output nor any other audio outputs (except USB), I would be forced to go via my monitor. Via HDMI to the monitor, from there with an audio cable (3.5mm) to this audio interface (with adapter 6.3mm). The interface is connected to the PC via USB and so I could regulate the volume of the two signals? Or do I also have to connect the PC to the interface with an audio cable (3.5mm to 6.3mm) so that I can mix? Does this work in reality or do I have a wrong way of thinking? I am grateful for any answer. Maybe there are people who have simpler solutions. Greetings and thanks!

Helpful answer

In your case, I would buy a small mixing console that has an integrated headphone amplifier (computer and PS5 via the analogue interfaces to the mixing console). Your idea would also work in principle, but then you would have to switch on the PC every time you want to play PS5.
