Issue Description: Since the update all ingame comms (radio&prox chat) are being forced trough my controller speaker. All playstation settings are correct, audio output is on my headset connected trough monitor. The only way to force the ingame audio on my headset is to turn off my controller.
(This was all working perfectly before the update, ingame comms would direct to my monitor->headset.)

Steps To Reproduce

Select monitor for sound output.
Select earbuds connected to controller as mic.
Join an arma reforger game and listen for ingame audio.
The audio will be forced trough controller speaker and there are no settings to change this.

Additional Information

Turning off the controller is the only way to force the ingame comms trough my monitor->headset.

Since i use a noise canceling headset i can no longer hear any comms ingame. And the game keeps lowering the main audio whenever there is ingame comms, however i do not hear the ingame comms, so i just hear the sound go low without any comms to justify the lowering which makes the normal audio really jarring.

Hello Quantumcream.
This is currently known side effect of a fix to an issue. Only workaround is to have headphones connected to controller or have some headset, that would be recognized by the system itself (like the original sony wireless headset).
We would like however to introduce setting for the later updates to be able to override the system and have an option to select the output.
Regards,
Geez

Yup, more and more people find it unplayable after this update. I stopped playing on PS5, they even disabled 3D audio on proximity, so you no longer hear the friendly position. Fortunately, I play on PC as well, so I'm playing on PC only until they fix it. I used to play with both devices simultaneously, one for Game Master to spawn stuff and the other to play with the main character. Now I'm limited.
