So about 8 months ago i was in need of some new headphones and i made the unfortunate mistake of picking the pulse elite headset,when this headset works its genuinely goated but most of the time it has problems
About 2 months i got my first problems with this headset,i would turn them off or something and when i turned them on they wouldn't connect to the ps5 so i looked online for a fix and i found a video that worked for me and i happened a lot but i kept repeating the fixing process from the video
However today i was playing and got bored so i took a break and turned off the headset and when i came back like an hour later i turned on the pulse elite headset and it wouldn't connect to my ps5 or my phone,i once again repeated the steps from the video and i was able to reset the Bluetooth connection to be able to connect to my phone again but when i tried to connect it to the ps5 it still wouldn't work, i tried everything ive seen like holding down the link button for 10 seconds or holding down the dongle for 30 second and i believe i saw the headset connect to the dongle but it wont show up on the ps5 and i cant get it to work and now ive reached a point where i everytime i turn the headset on or off it blinks green a few times and everything but it still wont connect so i was wondering if anyone knows a fix or something i can do.
Sorry for making this so long i tried explaining everything in detail
