Audio through controller (lemmy.world)

Not new to Linux but just build a PC (Linux mint) so new to Linux gaming. How do I get a similar function to my PS5 so plugging headphones into the controller switches the audio? I play a lot at night and not trying to wake the fam. I have a Xbox one and PS4 controller for the PC.

IIRC this works when the controller is plugged into the computer over USB. Bluetooth does not allow this.

this is the correct answer. over bluetooth audio does not work.

I didn't know that. I was thinking it would work wireless like when I connect headphones the PS5 controller.
