I’m betting the Bluetooth ID given by the controller advertises that it is a speaker, and Windows is assuming a newly connected speaker is where the person wants to output audio. I mean, why else would you connect a speaker? /s
Fun fact: The PS5 controller also includes a microphone. My circle didn’t know a hot mic was listening in on everything until we noticed background audio in one of our captures.

Don’t PlayStation controllers have a speaker built in? Not making excuses for Windows, but that might be related to why it gets confused.

they do, but the operating system should be asking me if I want to do something… not just do it without me agreeing or initiating it.
