Hello Howard,
In this case, you are dealing with a device that is called, a digital to
analog converter.
However, this device is inside of your headphone mike combo.
You are getting the audio as an analog signal, but your device is converting
the bit streams of 0's and 1's in to the analog signal that you are
receiving when you listen through your headphones.
The same thing is happening when you talk through your mike.
Hope this helps.
My best regards.
John.

Subject: audio on a USB PORT
Does anyone know how many conductors are terminated in the various types
of USB connectors? Is audio actually carried on any of these conductors?
Ideally it would be 6 conductors for audio: two each for stereo output,
high level input, and low level input. However, it seems that anything
I've read points to serial data only, and is only a port through which one
could connect an external audio device. I have a stereo headset with a
mic that connects to a USB port. I wonder what kind of data is being
passed up that wire?
Wonder if anyone has any thoughts (or, perhaps, some real knowledge).
Thanks.
Howard
