If a user has a headset or older A/V receiver without HDMI support they want to keep using optical audio is likely the only option. Additionally, users might run into EDID issues and have trouble with getting surround sound to work depending on what model of TV and/or AVR they’re using. The console doesn’t currently use any HDMI 2.1 specific features, like VRR and ALLM, so this isn’t a huge deal, but it could be in the future. There are no HDMI 2.1 extractors on the market, which will limit the PS5 to HDMI 2.0.
However, there are some drawbacks to using an HDMI audio extractor to get optical audio out from the PS5. This allows players to get audio from both the HDMI out port on the extractor and the optical port. An HDMI audio extractor sits between the console and TV and outputs the sound to a standard optical audio port. However, users will need to purchase a separate device to make this possible. It is possible to use optical audio output with the PS5.
