Metdevil Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Make sure in the options on the XMB you've set the audio output to "active device" or whatever it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fixlarz Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 turtlebeach.com/products/ps3-gaming-headsets/ear-force-px5.aspx Click the "How does it work?" text and you can see a picture for everything you need. If it doesn't work, make sure your PS3's settings send the audio via the optical output, should work. Not sure though, I have only owned the PX21's and they broke after 2 months of extremely careful use They had good sound though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoombaSquisher Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 well iknow it runs in dolby digital 7.1,and hooks up optically,the px21s hook up usb right?maybe thats the issue Nah, the USB is for voicechat and to power the amplifier. The PX21's piggyback off the analog cables that go into the TV/Receiver, so even if you unplug the USB, you'll still get game sound. As for your PX5's, similar situation. All your game sound is going through the optical cable. Voicechat is handled via Bluetooth. The only thing I can suggest is to make sure your "Audio Output Settings" are on "Optical" (I'm assuming you hooked it up with the optical cable - otherwise wtf is the point of buying a PX5) and have only "Dolby Digital 5.1" selected (There should be 2 "Linear PCM 2 Channel" pre-selected by the system[which you cannot de-select]). Other than that, just check your knobs and connections. I'm using an Astro Mixamp which uses an optical cable for game audio (like the PX5) and my coop sound was just fine.

Portlandridah Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 i imagine its cause you have your Audio setting set to accept DTS where as the Turtle BEachs headsets do not accept DTS signals only Dobly Digital turn this off in your PS3 Accessories Settings & you should b fine, this happened to me w/ Infamous 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon_2535 Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 Not related to the sound not working, but does anyone else find the voices to be extremely low compared to the rest of the game? I have an incredibly hard time hearing anyone talk, but then the shooting is ridiculously loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karnsatron Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I'm having a problem with my headset too. Triton AV720. Sound and mic plays fine in XMB and during mic test. Also plays fine for all other games. As soon as I start Rage, no sound out of headset and no mic. Have tried Audio output to multi and to just digital out. Think it's just a fault in the game programming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pibbz Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Not sure what the problem could be. I'm using Astro A40s with wireless mixamp using optical input with no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooterbud2007 Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 ok sorry about the ps3 version title lol,brain fart i guess,switching everything off except dolby digital 5.1 worked,thank you very much i appreciate the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illegalnull Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 You could try going into your audio device settings where it asks what audio formats to support, try to unchecking all the surround options, or if that doesn't do it then try just leaving the surround options on and turn off everything else. I've had no audio output before when my audio was set to 5.1 but hooked up to a 2ch setup. I seem to come across it in japanese games, FF13 and Bayonetta come to mind.

UndergroundHipHopHead Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 the new sony wireless headset has virtual 7.1 surround sound, a great mic and also is easiest to setup. just buy that if your headset still has problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a little more information: the PS3 automatically chooses the best audio signal (from the ones you enable) to output. Some games come with a Dolby Digital and DTS signal. DTS (according to the PS3) is better than Dolby Digital, so it tries to output that instead of DD. Though, I don't see a DTS logo anywhere on the RAGE box, so it's kinda weird it wasn't outputting in Dolby Digital... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OriginalSlayde Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I've got PX5 headphones as well and ran into the same issue. I had to turn off both DTS and Dolby Digital and play it with just stereo sound, unfortunately. http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/228/Slayde.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfdrifter Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 No need to turn off Dolby Digital. Turn Off DTS and you'll be fine with Px5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red5ive Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 No need to turn off Dolby Digital. Turn Off DTS and you'll be fine with Px5 I just want to confirm that this works. The reason why is because neither the PX5 base unit or the EarForce DSS module with the lower models (i.e., DPX21) are equipped with a DTS decoder. By default if you have DTS enabled, DTS is what is streamed with Rage. Note that DSS actually means "Dolby Surround Sound." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claret1858 Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Started playing Rage last night. Not using headphones but I had similar sound issues. Nothing from Panasonic HC system but sound from TV if HC turned off. Fiddled with PS3 settings a bit but no joy. Not a major issue but would be nice to hear it in 5.1. Thought I had DTS deselected. Will check and try some of the suggestions from others tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iNSaNey Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Same issue here with Astro A40's Wired mix amp. I also had this issue with inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood. Turning of DTS 5.1 worked for both these games. Blueray movies do the same thing There is a fairly simple explanation for this. Mix Amp can NOT decode DTS. I'm not sure any surround headset amp does actually. So Turn DTS off if you are using a headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
