Overview
- DualSenseX published v3.2 Beta 01 to its Steam beta branch, adding a “Virtual DualSense with Audio” that lets PC games send native DualSense haptics and controller audio over Bluetooth or USB.
- The app makes the controller appear as a wired DualSense to games and then routes trigger, light, and haptic data through a custom software layer because Windows Bluetooth does not support the high‑bandwidth audio stream DualSense haptics require.
- Access to the Bluetooth haptics and audio feature requires buying the DSX base app and the paid DSX+ add-on (base $7.99, DSX+ about $3.99, bundle pricing available) and opting into the Steam beta branch.
- v3.2 Beta 01 also overhauls the UI with redesigned Home, LED, Haptics, and Profiles pages plus a card‑based profile view and a major button‑mapping workflow rebuild, and it fixes many stability issues including Bluetooth audio/haptics latency, stuck inputs, reconnect bugs, and crash fixes.
- The release is an unofficial third‑party workaround that improves DualSense parity on PC but introduces user friction through paid DLC, required Steam beta enrollment, and a 28‑day ownership cache that forces periodic re‑verification.
