PS5 - Sound change since patch 2.70/1.51?

Hello all 
Has anybody else noticed a big change in the sound (mainly sound effects and voices) since the latest patch went live? The sound effects of my weapons/spells, as well as the sounds of voices, (companions etc.) now sound... muffled, somehow, like I'm playing the game inside a wooden barrel, lol. For example, when my companion speaks behind me, it now see-saws drastically from the left to the right, as if they're trying to speak from all sides, and through cotton wool. Casting abilities have a muffled deep sound that's quite hard on the ears if you play with headphones.
I haven't changed any settings or done anything differently, but the change was immediately noticeable after the latest patch, and I wondered if this is a known issue? It's unpleasant to the point where I'm not keen to play, which is awful, as I play every day and love the game.
I just wondered if anyone else is experiencing this too?
(Also apologies if this is posted in the wrong section, feel free to move it if so, I'm unfamiliar with the forum. Thank you!)

MickyEtt✭✭I personally have not experienced this issue on my PS5, but have you tried recalibrating your 3D audio with those headphones on in your PlayStation settings? This sounds like that might be the issue, but I'm not sure.
I've had some goofy experiences with the 3D audio messing up every once in awhile, to where I need to recalibrate it, then it seems to be working as intended.
Let me know if this helps or not! Hopefully it gets fixed for you soon, as I can see how annoying it could possibly be.
