To do this, you have to set the output device to the HDMI device (TV) in the sound settings under “Audio output” and deactivate the “Switch output device automatically” option (if it hasn’t already been done). You then need headphones with a 3.5 mm jack plug, which you have to plug into the controller. This step is necessary for the PlayStation 5 to recognize headphones. The voice chat from the PS5 Party Chat should then be played through the speakers on the TV.

By the way, the trick is not new, you can also use the trick on the PlayStation 4 if you wanted to play the voice chat from a party over the TV speakers. By the way, it is important that you set the microphone level of the headset correctly with this configuration, otherwise feedback and an echo will quickly occur.
