Audio through controller (lemmy.world)

Not new to Linux but just build a PC (Linux mint) so new to Linux gaming. How do I get a similar function to my PS5 so plugging headphones into the controller switches the audio? I play a lot at night and not trying to wake the fam. I have a Xbox one and PS4 controller for the PC.

I have a ps4 controller and just plugging my headphones into the controller seems to route audio to it fine on pop!_os.. I'd assume mint would be similar since they're both based on ubuntu, but I've not tried

I thought about using pop! How do you like it? My home and work laptops run arch but I wanted something more stable for this.

I've been quite enjoying it :3.. I tried out a few distros when I first started linux, but with tiling and the pop launcher pop!_os fit my workflow the best out of the box, plus I've only had like 1 major issue with it, so.. it's been pretty stable too ^^ (more stable than windows for me haha)

Definitely excited for their upcoming release too, since it'll be coming with COSMIC :3
