How to Fix LG UltraGear Gaming Monitor Sound Not Working on PS5 – Output/PCM
In today’s video, we’re fixing the issue where your LG UltraGear gaming monitor has no sound when connected to a PS5. This happens more often than you think because PS5 audio settings, monitor capabilities, and HDMI output formats must align perfectly. Today, I’ll walk you through the exact steps to restore full audio output. We’ll begin by checking whether your LG UltraGear monitor actually has built-in speakers. Many popular models like the 27GN850 or 27GP850 do not include speakers and instead rely on the headphone jack. If your monitor has no speakers, I’ll show you how to route PS5 audio through the monitor’s headphone jack or a controller/headset setup. Then we’ll configure the PS5 Sound Settings, selecting: ▶ Output Device → HDMI Device (TV) ▶ Audio Format → Linear PCM PCM is the most compatible format for LG monitors and prevents sound cutouts or silence caused by Dolby/DTS incompatibility. Next, we’ll verify that the monitor’s OSD audio settings are not muted, that volume is increased, and that the correct audio source (HDMI/DP) is selected. We’ll also check HDMI cable compatibility, because low-end cables often send video but fail on audio handshakes. Bonus tip: If using headphones through the monitor, set PS5 → Audio Output → “Switch Output Device Automatically” to ON.
