Why can’t I get sound in the PS4 browser? What could be the cause if the sound doesn’t work in the built-in browser on PlayStation 4? Anyone who has a PS4 from Sony next to the television will certainly use the console not only for gaming, but also for watching films and series and listening to music. In addition to the possibility of buying and watching a film or series directly via the PlayStation Store, there is also a PS4 app for well-known streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video or the video platform YouTube. In addition, you can also access various websites via the integrated web browser and access various content such as videos, films, music and much more. If you use the PS4 browser to play videos, for example, you may have sound problems. The question arises, what can you do if you have no sound in the PlayStation 4 internet browser?
PlayStation 4 no sound in the browser: what to do?
If you play a video or music (for example a radio stream) via the browser on the PS4 and there is no sound, the first thing you should of course do is check the volume setting. This applies not only to the volume setting of the console or controller, but also to the volume setting of the video player. We have often had the video player mute (swipe the mouse cursor over the speaker symbol). If the volume is set correctly, then it is most likely due to the website or stream. On some websites, the video content is protected with additional copy protection (DRM) and in rare cases this is not supported by the integrated browser on the PS4.
If you have experience with sound problems in the PS4’s internet browser and know other causes or solutions, please feel free to post them here in the comments section.
Tip: This is how you can listen to the radio on the PlayStation 4.
