The new PlayStation 5 discoveries keep cranking up – even a week after the system’s American launch. Did you know, for example, that the DualSense’s mute button can also be used to quickly and conveniently turn off all of the system’s sound? You may want to do this if someone’s trying to speak to you, or if you need to listen out for a phone call or doorbell.
Basically, all you need to do is hold the microphone mute button located beneath the PlayStation button. If you’ve done it correctly, its orange light will pulse, and all of your game audio will be completely muted. Push it again and all of the sound will return. Cool, eh? We wonder what else there is to discover about this device?

I'm gonna do this to a friend's PS5 and watch them scratch their heads. What a great feature!
Just saw this on Mystic's (Ryan) YouTube channel.
TAKE THAT (company that steals information. Ex: Google, Facebook, etc.)!
"Microphone mute button" Wait, is there a mic built into the controller, or do we still need a separate headset for that?
@StrawberryPink I think you can chat with the mix on the controller if i heard correctly.
@Flaming_Kaiser Damn. I hope I can mute it without muting all other audio. I don't need people hearing my private, sometimes profanity-laden, comments when I'm playing.
Ratatatatata ring ring - mute... "what was that the doorbell? Hmmm" - unmute - ratatatatata
@StrawberryPink Ill probably keep it off with COD i can get quite pissed off. 🤪
When you press it once it mutes or unmutes. If the colour of button turn orange, it’s muted. If you hold the button for a second or so, it’ll mute the TV, soundbar or whatever you have audio coming out from. You can have the controller microphone muted by default when you turn it on via a setting in system.
