I understand that the new 1.60 update now supports the Sony brand headsets. I purchased one a while back Sony Elite Pulse and I am trying to figure out how to connect it to my PS4. Can someone please break this down Barney style for me please? Thank you very much!

Plug the Pulse's dongle into one of the PS4 USBs
Boot up the PS4 and switch on the headset
The end of the dongle should have a blue light and the headset will do a long beep when its connected to the PS4

Then I found I also had to do this:-
Continuously press the Home button on the controller until you get some options on a blue screen
The 1st Option is 'Adjust Devises' - click that

You should see a new option group one of which is 'Output to Headphones' - click that

Mine seem to have been set to 'Chat Audio' by default
Change it to 'All audio' - you may now hear some sound from the PS4 - in that case go back to the Home screen and continue with your life

OR - if still no sound
Go back to the Home screen and you should here sound from the headset if you have 'System music' and/or 'Key tone' selected in the Settings/Sound and Screen section
(To get to the settings tab - scroll up to the top set of options on the main 'Home' screen)
OR just go into a game and check for sound there

Erm,,also..I presume the headset comes with an instruction booklet on how to connect?

Yes but it I don't think it mentions this PS4 setting being in a different place.

On the PS3 the audio setting I mentioned seems to be in the Settings/Stereo headset audio extension - on/off
With the PS4 this setting, for some reason, is available only when you hold down the Home button

When its set to 'Chat Audio' I think only the headset's microphone is in use - so you are using the TV to hear other sound
When is set to 'All audio' the sound comes through the headset as well
