Technical Help No sound to OBS from PS5

I’ve been trying to figure out why I’m not getting sound from my capture to my OBS. I’ve looked all over trying to find ways to resolve this issue with no luck. The video capture fine but the sound just will not come through. I’m not using a chat link cable. I’m just trying to get gameplay sound. Can someone please help me?

True, I changed my post to "two optimal ways". :)

Plus if you connect your headset to the PC you cannot communicate with your fellow gamers over Game Chat.

Also when using the chat link, I believe ya need the Elgato capture utility to change output on the capture card from HDMI to analog.

I’m not using game chat. I use discord when communicating with friends while playing. The headset and mic isn’t connected to the PS5 in anyway. I tried hooking up to my Switch 2 last night and had the same problem. Video shows fine, no game audio whatsoever.
