ps4 controller light stays on after I turn the console off

The light bar on my PS4 controller stays lit even after the console goes into rest mode, so it never charges properly and the battery drains. Is there a setting for this?

what colour is it? if it's pulsing orange that's it charging, not draining. if it stays blue or white the controller just isn't switching off when the console goes to rest. hold the PS button and pick Turn Off from the quick menu before you put the console to sleep. and in Settings > Power Save Settings > Set Features Available in Rest Mode, Supply Power to USB Ports needs to be on, or it won't charge in rest mode at all.
