I don't own a Dualsense but I'm 90% sure than that kinda functions would need to be implemented on a case by case basis by the developers porting those games, which means that some might carry those features but most likely won't. These days even something as simple as force feedback is a bit of a minefield of half-assed compatibility on PC so I wouldn't hold much hope for more complicated stuff like playing audio through the controller's speaker, specially when currently the gold standard of compatibility appears to be steam-input and it only really cares about buttons, sticks, triggers, and gyro.
You'll have to do research on each specific tittle, sorry.

All you need to know about PC Gaming with PS5 Dualsense Controllers
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Controller:DualSense
Support in Games section is what you want to focus on, eg.
https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_games_that_support_DualSense
But they have separate pages for each feature support.

A DualSense used with Steam CAN support all the features it does on PS5: speaker, adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, touchpad, gyro. Haptic feedback requires a USB cable, everything else can be supported in wireless mode, too. Some older games may require the cable even for adaptive triggers (see the great Wiki page linked above). Current Sony-published games offer feature-parity with PS5, while other games may not (see Stray) wven though they do support the DualSense itself.
Worst case, you use Steam Input which transates your DS input into "Xbox controller" input and you'll see Xbox button prompts on screen. More and more games now offer either auto-detection or a setting for prompts, even when they don't use any of the DS's more advanced features.
All in all, as of today, a great choice, especially if you can live with a USB cable and you like Sony-published games.
Edit: I forgot the microphone and the dynamic light bar. These also work on PC.

There are also programs that emulate a wired PS5 controller for those games that don't work well in wireless mode.

Hi, I wanted to know a clarification regarding the PS5 Dualsense on Steam games, but if I connect a Dualsense and it is compatible with a Steam game but by chance does it have the same features as the PS5?
In the sense that if you play for example The Last of Us and there are audio as collectibles you can hear the voice of the NPC in the Dualsense microphone but does this also work on Steam?
Obviously it also applies to Triggers for example is Final Fantasy Rebirth that when you use the vehicle, the L2 and R2 buttons "harden" when you press them.
