PS5 controller doesn't charge

PS5 controller doesn't charge - Man in VR headset testing technology

I have bought controller to use on PC. But when I connect it to USB to charge, orange light glows once and stops. If I connect it to Mac, it glows solid orange with white middle light. It should blink orange when charging, right? I tried multiple cables, laptop charger, computer USB port charging, phone charger - orange just blinks once. What is the problem here?
