This should fix #232, #230, #200 and #174. When sending report to DS4 dongle, audio left channel volume and right channel volume was set to 0. This would cause the controller audio to mute. To get around this issue, a very basic implementation of CoreAudio API is added and used to retrieve the current volume for the DUALSHOCK audio device

Hey i have problem with the audio jack too. I have no idea of programming but is it possible that i could exchange the lines and get it to work?

Edit: Nope, cant find files, dont know what do to ;D

I posted a binary release on my github fork here. Feel free to use it at your own risk until this gets looked at by Jays2Kings and he decides to pull it into the main release.

I’m having an issue with both the official version and your fix where when I boot up either ds4 application the audio becomes softer or cuts out altogether. When I boot up the original ds4 my audio is muted, but is fixed by adjusting my PC’s master volume. This restores normal audio levels and I can continue with it connected to ds4, though the audio does cut in and out every so often mid-game.
In the rumble fixed version the audio stays softer and there is slight distortion when I change volume levels, while normal audio levels are not restored like in the official version. When I exit the application my PC audio levels are normalized. It’s strange because when I initially started using the fixed version it seemed perfect aside from the mic cutting out. I’ve tried changing usb ports and restarting my PC a few times to no avail. At the moment, I’m using the official version with vibration levels at zero, and now the mic is functioning on my headset, though I'm still not able to get the mic working on your fixed version.

I can confirm pankek's bug after testing with your build, and it doesn't fix the audio cutout with the mic when the rumble kicks in.

this isnt a clear cut true fix but go to control panel>Devices and Printers right click on the PS4 wireless adaptor (as that is the interface we are using) then click on sound setting, then select headset earphones properties then go to enhancement tab check loudness equalization should the audio feels "copped out" to you, should work also under wired connection but the fork is only built around the bluetooth connection so the rumble issue will still be present with the wired connection
