​As a note, these are available through Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Aluminum-Headphone-Microphone-Plug-N-Play-Compatible/dp/B014ANW4VU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8=1470467685=8-1=trond+usb​,
which says they are Linux compatible. They should appear as CMedia CM108 on
your machine. It is often a case of unplugging and re-plugging the device
so that it is noticed.

It is supported, I'm running QSB Sound Science speakers here on 16.04.1.
​You will have to be specific about your audio device. ​
It's a bit of a pain to get set up sometimes though.
​ It took me an hour or so to track down the best way of doing it​.

​If your device isn't visible in Sound Settings (or in the Sound 
control panel) open a terminal and see if it's visible to aplay -l. 
If it isn't then it may not be supported, but that would unusual. The 
simplest solution is to install gstreamer, which should make it 
available to pulseaudio. If not, get the details of your device and 
we should be able to work out how to get it working.

Trond USB audio, not working in 16.04, was good in 12.04 and 14.04, 
can you assist please. Tks, Michael




Needed to try a few times, remove/reinsert, came good, tested on 
various, including Skype, good audio so transition from 12.04 to 16.04 
now completed.
The Trond USB audio device is reliable, does not fail in a few hours as 
some do, if computer 3.5mm jack has become intermittant, the Trond USB 
audio device is a good repair option. Michael.D
