I would love to understand why you think that a headset with industry
standard audio jacks would not be compatible with a given application. This
headset contains no processor or vendor/product ID. It's not possible for
an application to poll the headset for information because the electronics
required to do so does not exist.

The application writes data to the audio device, which sends electrical
signals down the cable. The application never interacts directly with the
headset. How then, is the application supposed to change behavior based on
a device it cannot see?
