Unplug your headset from your PS4 controller, then disconnect the mic boom by pulling it straight out of the headset and plug the mic boom back in. Then re-plug your headset into your PS4 controller again. 2) Try your PS4 headset with mic in another device to see if it works normally.
The virtual 7.1 surround sound is supported through the USB sound card only when used on a computer. It can be used with the USB sound card but as the PS4 does not have the drivers to run the sound card it will only support pass through sound.
It's worth pointing out that the Arctis 5 also works with the PS4 and Xbox One thanks to the headset's 3.5mm audio-jack adapter. The sound isn't as good using the adapter, but is perfectly functional.
